Yes, please continue unraveling this "Scooby Doo mystery", I'm sure it will be entertaining for everyone!

Do you think there's a coordinated campaign by(?) Coverity to get your open source project to use it? For what reason? It's surely not to make money considering Coverity gives open source projects a free license.

> I have nothing against Coverity personally - it may very well help the V code generator, but I hate being forced to use a product in such a way.

Yes, two random people telling you to consider using a static analysis tool is "forcing" you to use a product.

This is a great example why everyone should stay away from V. Industry standard best practices are treated as conspiracy theories by the developers.

It's fine for people to decide they want to make a new language; that's great! It's also totally fine for all of those people to have no idea what they're doing; that's how you learn. But at some point, you need to recognize that you don't know what you don't know. V is not anywhere close to the level of production ready-ness you yourself have repeatedly claimed.



I myself do not claim that V is production ready. It is not even 0.2 ... I think it is very disingenuous of you, to put words in my mouth in such a way. I would appreciate, if you stop doing that to me, or others in the future.


As for Coverity, we are considering it, and afaik Alex has a license for PVS-Studio.
