How hard is it to get this to work with something other than Javascript?

Not very hard. Two years ago we did something similar for Clojure: http://cloxp.github.io/cloxp-intro.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQvvgzvPgQI

We are currently evaluating options for getting this stuff funded and Python would be a another target language / platform.

I can see python being very useful for this, but perhaps ruby would be a better fit? I can't help but wonder if lively.next+ruby on the truffle vm might not be able to steal a lot of attention, and kick off a bit of an "old-style" / message-passing object oriented revival... One can hope...

On The other hand, zope/zodb did manage to get pretty far wrt "magically persistent" object graphs for python.

Thanks, I was particularly wondering about Python and R. Will try this out anyway.
