Writing in African languages became a topic of discussion in conferences, in schools, in classrooms; the issue is always being raised - so it's no longer "in the closet," as it were.

My impression was and is that many programming languages and tools represent solutions looking for problems, and I was determined that my work should not fall into that category.

Other programming languages constitute a mountain of ideas and inspiration-but it has to be mined carefully to avoid featurism and inconsistencies.
