I am often asked what the point is in having yet another language for the JVM. Apart from the fun of writing a compiler and being able to run actual programs using my own language, I wanted a language where the execution state could be captured and persisted such that if the server where the application is running fails, the execution state can be restored and resumed on another machine.
