who am I

one of my favorite avatars here and there on the web. it's a half-manga half-cartoon boy head with his eyes closed and the sun shines through its blue hair. very peaceful and beautiful indeed

Just this guy, you know ?

I study at the EPFL in microengineering, although I lived in France until my 18th birthday.

I spend most of my free time on ooc, an open source object-oriented programming language. I like to say it has «the speed of C and the comfort of Java»

who is this llama?

*the* llama, the mascot of ooc, showing how he's proud of his teeth =)

This very llama is the mascot of the ooc programming language.

ooc tries to find a middle ground between C and Java. While being high-level and object-oriented, it directly allows the use of any C library.

it's translated to pure C by an intermediate compiler, so it's very portable: it has been tested on Gentoo, RedHat, FreeBSD, MinGW/Windows XP, and we're looking for some OSX testers =)

ooc uses boehm's GC for memory management, adds type safety, object orientation (class-based), dependency/library management, all with very little overhead at runtime.

ooc is 100% free software, released under the New BSD license, it's available at github, google code, sourceforge, ohloh, freshmeat, launchpad,

wanna talk?

an icon of a terminal, which kinda represents the communication side and the geek side.

You can always reach me (try 2AM!) at amoswenger@gmail.com

I'm especially interested to talk about ooc and languages/compilers in general!
