Changing the language isn't an option, no more so than turning the linux
kernel into C++ is an option.  This is what we've got.  Anyone is
welcome to recreate OpenSim in another language, but I doubt anyone on
the current dev team is interested.  All the code is BSD licensed, so
there is no restriction to do that.

That being said, I'm declaring dead horse on this thread.  Please stop
responding as this isn't really a development topic.
