Also, for some tasks it would be desirable that a programming language could have the simplicity and flexibility of assembly language, and the stability of a standard language which is ensured to remain 100% backward compatible throughout all of the language versions. It could be achieved by defining a simple language which resembles the basic C and assembly syntax and constructs. The source code should be also compilable to similar platforms when applicable (groups of Intel/AMD, groups of PIC for electronics, etc.) without any or very few changes in the source code.
Other good thing to have would be one only tool or package capable of taking the whole source code and converting it to assembly, and then to a binary, which would take few relatively simple command line parameters and most of platform-dependent commands would be in the source code.
So, I think it would be a good place to write about it, since at least for the programming requirements and comfor options, it seems to be a better choice, and also because OS programming should, and can be easier, and in practice it should greatly speed up the development.
It looks like there is a lot of people who makes their own modified versions of C or assembly to fit perfectly their programming knowledge and style to the OS development task.
This language I'm talking about should be more generic (without too "personal" elements or too many or too few options, and a good deal of flexibility and instantly customizable), in case anybody is interested or could find it useful as it gets to develop.
So talking about licenses, here is the license it must be understood to go along with it:
