Unlike your yes-man Juergen, I see lots of problems.

For one, where's the built-in cortex interface? If Euphoria really wants to
break out of its DOS-based roots, jump with both feet into the 21st century
and give it a cortex API! sheesh. All this typing is so 20th century.

How about an intelligent interpreter?  That would be nice. All I have to do
is tell it (in plain English) what I want the program to accomplish and the
interpreter creates the program. Come on, this is obvious stuff.

How about a truly cross-platform interpreter?  Why doesn't Euphoria compile
on my Motorola cellphone yet? Please do not give me the same lame excuses I
have heard over and over and over again.  Just make it work on my Commodore
VIC-20 and I'll be happy.

Where's the additional functionality I've requested over the past 10 years?
(Search the EUforum archive.)

I'm tired of this. Every release it's the same old thing.  I'm switching to
C++.
