I think it is by 'law' that an ISO standard language needs to be
updated every 5 or so years?
Something to keep the language lawyers busy all the time :)
As an effect of this, one can see that computer languages start
simple, and in couple of decades they all become so complicated
and complex to use. Then a new simple language comes along,
and the cycle starts again.
This happens to all languages, look at the new FORTRAN. If you
think Ada is complex and has lots of features, you need to
look at new Fortran.
Also, Look at Java now, it started as a simple language in 1995,
now I find it the language very complicated with all the additions
made to it.
I miss turbo pascal now ;)
