What would your perfect language for Linux development look like?

[Olivier Cornu]

Hello everybody,

I've recently started a toy project: a programming language aimed at
OS development only.
It's nothing revolutionary really and it will very likely never be
used by anyone - except perhaps me: the main intent is to learn more
about programming languages and OS specific needs in this regard (the
idea grew while playing with Linux and Minix C sources and reading
about OS design issues).

I would be glad to hear you share your experience about C as a
programming language in OS development context, like:
- what missing feature would you like C to have?
- what feature should be removed?
- what kind of language cleanup would you like to see?
In other words, what would your perfect language for Linux development
look like?

Regards,
Olivier
