I've been following this for a while and think it is a gorgeous idea. Particularly nice is the fact that one can still use C and C++ libraries from lua, then dip out into Terra for things that require more speed that don't currently have a library.

Lua tying it all together means you have a tiny, dynamically typed language that can be embedded in lots of popular C based software, which can now be accelerated to (even more) incredible speed. I predict big things and wish them well.
