I'm sorry that a lot of people seem to misunderstand my attempts at "so called" humor. Of course I think the two SPL creators (who are friends of mine) have done real work.
Maybe not useful work (as in creating peace, ending world hunger etc etc) for our society at large, but interesting, funny and cool work.
The language grew out of a lab assignment in a syntax analysis course at our school. If viewed as a lab assignment, SPL is probably a little more work than the course coordinator demands:-). That's all I meant.
Yes. Of course I was only trying (and failing) to be funny. I'm also a CompSci-student here in Stockholm and the SPL creators are friends of mine at The Royal Institute of Technology.
Mr. Torvalds and Linux is another pretty good example of what university students can create when they probably should use their time to "real school work".
As I said. Only trying to be amusing. Next time I'll just submit a URL.
