You mean C#, of course. C#, with a side order of share-nothing message
passing concurrency. C# on the whole isn't a bad language: it's way
better than Java (which isn't, admittedly, exactly a high bar).

But still, Dart seems like nothing to write home about.

Note one sneaky thing: using an image as means of deployment:
http://www.infoq.com/news/2011/10/google-dart-language mentions "Dart
comes with tools to create an image of the heap of an application and
package it into an optimized format which can be loaded nearly
instantly, reminiscient of Smalltalk's image system."

A couple of hours ago, I have asked this: https://groups.google.com/a/dartlang.org/group/misc/browse_thread/thread/fd4e8b652db6e8ee#

Funny, given the number of arguments Smalltalkers have with people
over the use of images.
