Ted Leung responds to my response on the topic. I see what Ted is driving at as far as a "crutch" for the curly brace crowed - he may well be right. I do think type annotations as an option are important for inter-language interop (SOAP, CORBA, etc). The other side of those conversations is going to want type information; the less painful we can make it to provide that information, the better.
