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/fd4...
You was Gilad's reply?

So I wonder...is this a kind of Smalltalk image? what is similar and what different?
Better analog is a Strongtalk BST file. It contains the classes and compile-time constants, but no state.

And as I understand it a BST file is pretty much the same intent as a parcel or a fuel package containing code.
Seems so. Except that fuel can contain data "objects" not just code "objects". Okay, 10 years later i hope we again have a new language, which will inherit all current crap + finally "everything is an object" concept :) -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.
