Google's "Go" language

Google today announced a new language called "Go" (see http://golang.org).It's what I would call a "mashup" language. It takes parts of C (compiled, pointers, functional language), C++ (strongly typed, Interfaces, but no classes), Java (garbage collection, reflection, memory models), and focuses on lightening fast compilation. It does add its own unique features, such as goroutines, which make concurrent programming easy.

From Google's documentation, it appears that they're targeting the C++ community with Go (see http://golang.org/doc/go_for_cpp_programmers.html). To get a quick introduction, check out the video

Also, check out Google's open source blog for ongoing discussions.

Happy coding!

Where the stdout and the stderr have been redirected in the tomcat debian package installation?

Easy! On the syslog (/var/log/syslog). This made me crazy for a while. Actually because I've never took the time to look at the obvious thing: /etc/init.d/tomcat6.

Look at these lines:

$DAEMON -user "$TOMCAT6_USER" -cp "$JSVC_CLASSPATH" \
-outfile SYSLOG -errfile SYSLOG \
-pidfile "$CATALINA_PID" $JAVA_OPTS "$BOOTSTRAP_CLASS"

Is the reason explained here correct?
Any other reference?
