I did not wrote any Cyclone code besides simple hello-world like programs since I do not have time to contribute more. But if somebody asks me to write network-related code in C, I would simply refuse. Thanks to Java I know that network-related code that I wrote so far does not have any buffer overflows leading to remote exploits.

And if Java or C# is not acceptable, then at least I can use Cyclone or any other language with enough built-in protection and easy integration with C to write my part of the code.
