@ - Can you fill us in on why you conclude that you are on the leading edge?

Well, I just spent a year determining an operational semantics and set
of type checking rules for the core of C++ (overloading, inheritance,
hiding, virtual functions, constructors, etc.).  I would be interested
in seeing the "C+@" language specification.  I mailed you to that
effect, but I didn't get a response.  I tried your FTP site, and the blue
moons that it _is_ up and running, you don't have anything there
except a catalog of a bunch of files that _aren't there_.

I am not interested in what you think of the standardization process.
Luckily, C+@ hasn't gone through the same process, so it shouldn't be
in any way concealed from the public, right?





         Jim, where is the C+@ language specification?
