So, are you planing to redesign the compiler API and maybe some stuff
in the language itself?

Well, I think I should ask more general question. What are your plans
regarding the future of Nemerle, guys? How far are you going to go
with it? Is this just a scientific project or you consider / would see
Nemerle as one of mainstream languages?

I am asking because when I tell other people about the language, they
ask me almost the same questions, and my answer usually starts from
"I hope...". It would be better to say "Sure, no doubt.." :)
