[cap-talk] Security by safe language processing (was: Re: Memory access based OS security)

[Ben Kloosterman]

Note some proposed language based OS intend to use a JIT and a compiler bug
would just re compile it so if there is a compiler bug it is merely a case
of redeploying the compiler and the Meta Data will state it was built by the
old compiler so it will recompile.

I prefer the scheme mentioned in my last post on the grounds that a JIT will
force compromises on the first run time an install time check would 
- Allow better memory checking 
- Allow stronger optimizations than current c#/java apps
- gives the role of "owning" the code to the installer. This allows more
conformity in applications eg where they are installed , what files they
install , shared files , managing configuration etc.
