If you mean that variables would be declared implicitely, the problem is that 
any typo would result in the creation of a new variable, without any warning.

var and let are precisely the concise way to declare: "here is a new variable".

let l = new ArrayList();
// l has type ArrayList<T> for some T which will be discovered later

l.add("ABC"); // OK, now the compiler knows T=String
l.add(0); // type error

Yes, because it's not needed. The compiler can infer the type of the elements 
of the list.

Actually, this zip is outdated. If you get the source of the compiler, the 
current implementation of nicedoc is in src/nice/tools/doc

Frank, Artem, what is the status on nicedoc?
