I am not following amber-dev nor amber-spec-experts. I found the
objections raised here very reasonable, in particular the objection to
not include a controversial feature as 'preview' which would then
manifest itself by people using it. I can't see that those objections
have been 'satisfactorily answered'. If they have been satisfactorily
answered on any of the amber-* mailing lists, maybe it would be worth to
repeat that here for those of use who don't follow those lists. I'd find
an answer satisfactory if those who raised it agree and state here that
they're ok. In particular, I don't actually see any need to include a
half-baked (language-) feature as preview.
Thanks,
Roman
