Last evening I put together a quick proposal for a weak and strict checking approach, since I felt that things were being concluded a bit prematurely. More importantly I detailed the issues I see with a pure strict type checking only approach.
I can't see the difference between your proposal and the conclusion I reached yesterday? (which was that there is a near consensus around strict checks by default, with casts allowed with some syntax).

Well to me it Sounded like you wanted to Rely on Standard Type juggling and what i am proposing is more strict than that. More over i am Not convinced that strict should Be the Default. Regards, Lukas
