I’d like Active Oberon to be more broadly applicable.

A2 is a pretty neat system. But using it outside the environment it comes with feels a bit crazy! (Same with all Oberon’s I’ve played with)

Sometimes things become over-opinionated to be generally useful perhaps?



I usually come up with an Oberon fan, although I also dislike Wirth's pursue for minimalism that started with Oberon, ending with Oberon-07.

I also feel that Active Oberon is the best Oberon that came out from the Oberon linage.

Yes Oberon is like Smalltalk and Lisp Machines, without the environment, it misses a lot.
