Working on goblin, a scripting language that compiles to Go.

The idea: dynamic + minimal syntax for scripting, but you get a single static binary and Go's concurrency primitives (goroutines/channels) for free. No runtime to ship, easy to deploy anywhere.

Intentionally few features, the goal is small and scriptable. Someone with programming experience should be able to pick it up in half an hour.

Still very early stage.

Too young, too simple, sometimes naive.

> As you can imagine, Ruby code intelligence (type inference, etc.) is super tough, and there are maybe 5-10 people in the world who could build it right now.

Is Yin Wang in the list?

Java is just for bootstrap, the compile to native code.
