A top oo programing language has been design called "ACEIL"
(also dubbed "coala" for "the ceiling (or mother) of all languages")
which combines the languages Ada, C, C++, Eiffel into one single,
highly expressive language which finally reconciles the language wars.
The delegates Bjarne Stroustruppi, Bertrand Meiffel, Jean Ischias,
and Tough Trucker have signed the final contract of appeasement.
All parties gave way to the opponents' interests:
The Ada community relaxed the language towards enhanced possibilities
to reallow programing errors. The benefit is twofold:
First, C hackers regain their beloved error searching process,
second, the push of the trade-unions to lower the unemployment rate is 
satisfied by prolonging the maintenance part of the software 
development process, which totals approx. 50% of the life cycle.
After long debate, the C++ community accepted Ada's completeness
of the object-oriented paradigm.

This information is rather incomplete due to its freshness, so,
does somebody have more information about the new language?

Regards,

Peter Hermann
