Growing Languages - Java

I have reread Guy L. Steele Jr.'s 1998 paper Growing a Language (PDF, download). That was a talk he did for OOPSLA, I think.

Definitely the best Java paper I know and one of the best Computer Language papers ever probably. As far as the knowledge of your humble correspondent reaches, anyhow. Read, reread, reread!

 
thanks for the pointer to steele!

S/he who avoids the fool might not know how foolish s/he is. Don’t they know only fools and children tell the truth?
