General Development "Vala is, in some sense, a new programming language. It’s syntax and structure leans heavily towards C#. As Jurg Billeter, the mastermind behind Vala, likes to put it; Vala is an amalgam of different C inspired languages, mostly C++ and C#. An though there is no mercury in this mixture, you'll find many a gold nugget in Vala."

It has a slight Ruby-ish feel as well, with the OO
parts of it. Anyway, looks like it would be fun to use, and by the look of it, Vala code could be easier to
maintain than C code. That's always very useful... ;)
