The home page touts "safety" as a feature the language but all it takes to crash the program is concurrent access to the builtin map: "uncontrolled map access can crash the program", according the faq. Interesting so far besides some syntax ugliness and lack of macros, but not yet good enough for many system programming projects, especially given the state of the garbage collector. GC is the hardest thing to implement large-scale, concurrent, memory intensive applications (e.g, database servers). Java spent 18 years to perfect its GC to be the current state of the art, which still sucks for these applications. I hope they can come up with a concurrent garbage collector that can work on > 16 GBs of RAM with sub ms max latency :)
