I like learning new languages that are of VALUE to learn: to quote Alan Perlis: " A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming, is not worth knowing." Imba doesn't seem to do anything new, just add some new syntax that seems similar to coffeescript. If you want to make a new language, good on you, but don't trumpet it as the next big thing, that's a revolution, unless it's doing something new, or at least has a different idea about how to do it. Failing all that, at least have it be good for getting stuff done fast. This is the "perl approach."
