When I was there a few years ago they were actively developing a new variant on one of their languages. They seemed to be going slightly more OOP to balance their functional paradigm out.

IIRC, this was a side project written by a friend of mine. He developed it in his spare time, due to his frustrations with MAGIC, and showed it off to enough people that they at least took enough interest to put some effort into it.

He's very much a Meditech lifer, and at this point may have been there for ~20 years at this point. From where he started, it was a big step up. Though what he could've done after his first 7 years at the place, I can only imagine, if he simply put in the effort to go anywhere else.

I mean building a new language or extension is no small feat.

Basically it compiles down to regular MAGIC, IIRC.
