That 's the general reaction. If you propose change in any way, you are politely asked to go away from Pascal, like if I 'd be some kind of 'enemy' towards the language and gonna steal the Golden crown away from it.

There is almost no in-depth discussion, as to the question if there really need to be changes like that. I don't think I'd go to a stronger language for now.. the C++ scene is too crowded. but it's more and more tempting..
