Hi all,

Do you remember the Smalltalk "morale crasher #1" ?

http://www.bytesmiths.com/Publications/9701ArchitectsVersusCoders.html

A similar story happened to me.

When annoucing an OCaml project on a public forum i have been advised to renunce lambdas because it would impede translation to "a less obscure, more popular language".
