I don't know what you mean by "too much Adaist". I have always maintained that
Ada 83 is a very good language, and remains a better language than most of the
popular languages in use today, so I unashamedly use it as the basis for King,
along with lessons learned, good features from later versions of Ada, and some
ideas of my own. No software-engineering language will ever be popular, so I see
no reason to deviate from Ada-like syntax.
Modules can have state, though in many cases you'd use a module type or passive
task.
