Kerf's doing well: we're adding a sort of NoSQL functionality which is pretty unique (unstructured data you can index and join on). Closer to K than J, but really pretty different from both, beyond the Array language heritage.
I had considered building a distributed processing system using J and zeroMQ, but now considering doing something like this with Kerf. Main thing is ... do the customers want it. I can't pay rent with technological innovation.
FWIIW, Pascal has something you might be interested in for GPUing in J, if you are not aware of it; jarrayfire.

I haven't screwed around with it, but I keep meaning to get around to it. Looks solid. I made an abortive attempt to do something cheaper (cuda hooks basically), but got distracted.
