I've had my eye on Nim(rod) for a long time. I think this language may be the right thing, at the right place at the right time. I haven't seen a better boat for Python refugees to jump into. It's certainly worth evaluating if moving from a Python2 codebase, rather than porting to 3. It's far enough along that it can start poaching users looking for the best place to jump off from 2.x. The only thing I'd like to see them somehow do, is add a CPython2.x library compatibility layer. If that could somehow be engineered into Nim before 1.0.. I think I'd declare Python3 to be in serious trouble. The users WILL come if that's done. Maybe take a look at Nuitka in how to make this possible with the binaries that Nim produces. Or even just include the CPython2 runtime in the compiled binary if a user includes Python(2) code.
