*'''Delete''' – Is (was?) a project at the University of Edinburgh. A test of programming languages is whether they are used by anyone other than their creators, and this one doesn't seem to be, aside from one German dissertation.That might be because it appears to use a rather esoteric functional programming language ([[OCaml]]). Microsoft has a component called [[Language Integrated Query|LINQ]] that is similar, and they are sometimes mentioned together, but LINQ works with [[Visual Studio]], so there is no competition there. If we kept it, it would be only for the sake of completeness. –&nbsp;[[User:Margin1522|Margin1522]] ([[User talk:Margin1522|talk]]) 20:44, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
