One major problem I see with all those wannabe C++ successor is that C++ 
has built a foundation that is several decades long, which counts for 
reliability and stability of the language (until the committee will 
manage to ruin this by keeping on doing what they are doing as of late)
These qualities are very valuable in projects and organizations where 
product quality matters.

In order to gain a comparable level of recognition, a successor of C++ 
would have to be building a similar foundation, and die along the way.
