communication protocol, it needs to use an object-capability model of
some sort because sandboxing leads to insanity.

Thoughts?
This reminds me the Rebol programming language
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebol & http://www.rebol.com/) which free
form syntax can be use both as a programming language and a data format.
It syntax can also be extended to create domain specific language and it
has a form of prototype base object model.
How will your Ocean language lab be different from Rebol?
