Much better!
I can see some of the benefits - It would be nice to have something kinda like a merge between C and java/.net. Like C++ done right. I've been writing a game engine in .net and its really not the right tool for this kind of stuff.
Still, I think you've got to be more risky to have a chance at making a well-recognized language. Maybe that's not really what you want.
Anyway, some good reading:
