The C3 programming language, which aims to stay close to C's control and predictability without excessive complexity, released v0.7.11 as the final 0.7 release (81 upvotes, 11 comments on r/programming). The release tightens semantics, improves inference, and prepares for the 0.8 series. For systems programmers watching the post-C landscape, C3 represents the 'evolutionary improvement' approach vs. Rust's 'revolutionary safety' approach — and the community is paying attention.
