Gilad Bracha (from my worm's-eye view) is doing some of the most interesting work in languages today.<p>He's reworking the Smalltalk language, essentially adding capabilities (no access to anything you're not explicitly granted), and doing mind-blowing UI work (with other people), the Hopscotch framework.<p>See <a href="http://langnetsymposium.com/2009/talks/08-GiladBracha-Hopscotch.html" rel="nofollow">http://langnetsymposium.com/2009/talks/08-GiladBracha-Hopsco...</a> .
