For people who might be interested in influencing some of the features of this system, I would appreciate them looking at my documentation at www.rccconsulting.com/hal.htm <http://www.rccconsulting.com/hal.htm> Although my system isn't quite ready for alpha distribution yet, I expect that it will be within a few months. People that help with the alpha and beta testing will be given consideration on the use of the system in the future even if they don't participate in the AGI development. When this project goes ahead, I think even Ben (who has a huge intellectual and financial investment in his Novamente project) will be interested in the experiments and results a system like I am proposing will have, even if he never interfaces his program with it.

Your programming language looks interesting, and well designed in many ways, but I have never been convinced that the inadequacies of current programming languages are a significant cause of the slow progress we have seen toward AGI.

If you were introducing a radically new programming paradigm for AGI, I would be more interested.... Not that I think this is necessary to achieve AGI, but I would find it more intellectually stimulating ;-)

Regarding languages, I personally am a big fan of both Ruby and Haskell. But, for Novamente we use C++ for reasons of scalability.
