Daniel,
I gave my presentation on Nice last night for my Masters of Computer Science class.  It went very well but omeone asked if the Nice Programming Language gets its name from the city in France?  If so, why Nice?  Is that where you are from?  I always assumed it was using the English word nice.
Thanks,
Rich Rolston

Greetings, 
 
I'm sorry that I've been very quiet about Nice these last months. The good news is that I'm going to defend my doctoral dissertation (more or less the theoretical foundations of Nice) next Friday, November 18th, in Paris. This has obviously kept me quite busy recently. 
 
Regarding Nice, there have been changes in CVS since the last release, in particular improving compilation speed, and that should be released not too long after I come back from France. There are still a few features that are needed before we make the 1.0 release, which will be worked on in the coming months. 
 
Daniel
