		Guy Steele wrote: Actually, the prototype implementation did allow non-final variables to be referenced from within inner classes.
		Guy Steele wrote: One of the early design principles of Java was that heap allocation occurrs if and only if a construct involving the "new" keyword is executed.
		Guy Steele wrote: Please remember that the design of a programming language consists not just in a laundry list of features, but also in making judicious choices of what to omit and, more importantly, in establishing design principles that are easy to understand.

	Weblogs Forum - Optimization: Me versus Guy Steele
		Guy Steele is a well respected language designer (designed Scheme, co-wrote the Java spec, etc.) and he has this to say about optimization:
		From Steele we might expect more innovative concepts rooted in the discussions we all made over the last 15 years.
		So far, the world in general has declined to use big complicated gui applications written in java, because of their excessive use of memory and poor cpu performance.

		In the first part of the talk, Steele described the history of Java and the features that set it apart from other languages, namely security and platform independence.
		In the third and final part, Steele compared the World Wide Web to a living organism and discussed the ethical issues of privacy and coercion.
		Steele described a set of rules in Java that constrain the changes permitted in an upgrade.

		He also has an ability to focus very systematically on what he describes as "nits and corner cases" -- an ability that came in handy when he was asked to co-write the specification for the Java language.
		Steele, a 10-year Sun veteran and winner of the 2005 Dr. Dobb's Excellence in Programming Award, has written half a dozen programming languages that exist simply as folders in his filing cabinet.

		In particular Guy mentions the asterisk which today means multiply and claims that it is an artifact of the limitations of early systems
		Guy, in an American tradition, wants instead to base his Fortress language upon actual practice of leading scientists and mathematicians.
		But my own (limited) experience with supercomputing, for which Guy Steele is developing Fortress, is that REAL supercomputer programmers have always used Fortran and will do so until the end of time.

		While a single accomplishment like designing Scheme or wrestling Common Lisp to the ground would be amazing, he just keeps going.

		Steele does this exceedingly well in CLTL, although I can understand how it can be off-putting to some; it adds bulk to an already formidable tome, and at times seems to clutter up what ought to be a cut-and-dried presentation of syntax and semantics.
		However, unless you subscribe to the mystical view that Lisp was created by divine fiat (a theory that is gaining popularity), then you will inevitably have questions as to why things were done in one way and not another.
		Steele obviously decided to have a little fun, which is understandable considering how dry such books tend to be.

	Objects Have Not Failed
		(Opening remarks by Guy L. Steele Jr., November 6, 2002)
		Here is some practical evidence: According to the most recent 2002 North American Developer Survey by Evans Data Corporation, over half the developers surveyed are using Java.
		But now that Java has become mainstream, popularizing not only object-oriented programming but related technologies such as garbage collection and remote method invocation, and now that the utility of object-oriented programming has been seconded by the sincere flattery of C#, we may now confidently assert that objects most certainly have not failed.
