I have seen and and read some of the documentation. Either this
weekend or next(as soon as I get some time) I wanted to try and write
some small little test programs in it.

The thing that makes we wonder is naming it a systems language when it
is garbage collected. When I think of a systems language I think of
drivers and kernels or something fairly tightly coupled in with them,
and in my mind having a garbage collector messing around in drivers
seems sketchy.

Maybe that is just me misinterpreting that term. Anyway I still think
it looks cool and I want to play with it.
