Thank you for the references, when time permits I'll read time as I'm still trying to get through the very boring ALRM 2012.  When I was "professionally" programming a couple of decades ago it was C, Pascal and assembler.  Hence I do lack personal evidence to make an assessment but the ideas of programming by extension seems appealing to me.

And indeed I noticed indeed that you and Dmitry are on the opposite side however sharing the same love for Ada.
