What are the down sides? That's the key question when a better thing comes along.

These are some downsides: https://github.com/aardappel/goose/blob/master/docs/tutorial...

  • I'd put the pros and cons right up front on the README.

    Selling the positives for a new programming languages should go hand in hand with a realistic thorough analysis of the negatives.

    Negatives of the language as a brief point 18 on the tutorial makes the negatives look hidden.

    • He is not "selling" anything. I don't see a price, quite the opposite - it's on the user to evaluate it's points, not on the "seller" (that he is not). Obviously if this becomes paid, or paid through support product this would be one of the first points of the table - "what are the limitations, what should we be aware of sorts".
