I plan to, by the end of 2023 hopefully, have a full release out. The code emit is already working well and so is the dependency tree algorithmn. Also, keen to hear what everyone else is working on here? [Not to discourage you or anything, but the chances of people switching to yet another C-like language rounds to zero. Only Rust and Go have gotten any traction lately, but they both have big companies behind them, and they have libraries and build environments. Writing your own language is fun and a good way to learn, but it's not likely to be of interest to other people. -John]
