That's Termite, right? The Gambit Scheme add-on? Quite frankly, I think 
they did a better job than Erlang. :) Sockets aren't going away. System 
V IPC isn't going away. Threads aren't going away. dRB and Rinda aren't 
going away. Monitors aren't going away. And I don't see the need to 
re-invent the OS in every language -- just the parts Windows got wrong. :)
