I was going to put my projects on hiatus until you made your decision on Vala's future. But I have no confidence that a decision will be made, and Vala will just continue languishing at Gnome.Nah. People still use vala, it's still being maintained, it's still the best way to write GTK+/GNOME apps that compile down to native code. Why advise people against that? :) //Mike
I'd like to throw in that even if GNOME completely abandons Vala, it is still the one and only language of the whole elementaryOS project. Each and every of their user-facing applications is written in Vala. There are more parties in GNOME that have a serious interest in keeping Vala going.
