I have to agree that altering the basic syntax of DC should only be done as
a clear change to the DC version after as many changes as are thought
necessary have been aired and agreed.
The worst thing that can be done is to provide instability to something that
is could become a universal standard. Yes there does need to be flexibility
and adaptability, but if developers see something that is in constant flux
they will be put off from adopting in, preferring to wait until DC is fixed
before investing in it.
I believe attention should be focussed upon promoting large scale
implementations DC and in sorting out multilingual vocabulary and key words
for the current version before any major public alterations in basic syntax.
