The barrier to take-up of language innovationI have been thinking recently about why so much programming language innovation is not taken up. this is my take on it... the people doing the innovating are usually very clever - to design a new language or a new language innovation you have to be clever. unfortunately, the majority of programmers are not as clever, so while the innovators see the benefit of their work, the majority of programmers don't understand it. what is needed is for programming language innovations to be packaged or distilled into an easy to use tool that does not require a degree in logic theory or programming language theory to be used. this seems to be even more difficult than doing the original innovation. mark.
