They currently label it as being an experiment. I am not sure it 
will take over C++ for cultural reason, but if they go through 
with it then they will displace other system level languages 
without a doubt.

Their goal is that no organization should have more than 50% 
influence.

D would be better off taking actors seriously, start giving 
‘shared’ meaning and find a real alternative to the current GC.

A language like Carbon would be disruptive in this space as it 
would be the first alternative for people who find C++ to be 
complicated.
