-To root out bugs, every programming language should be designed with the help

-"pencil-and-paper" proofs - at least the overhead of formal proofs should not
-prevent any formalisation.  Many ideas for our work come from the nominal
-logic work by <A HREF="http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~amp12/" target="_top">Andrew
-Pitts</A>.  Our theoretical results about nominal theories enabled us to
-implement Nominal Isabelle on top of Isabelle/HOL.
