This looks great, the visual representation may be a killer feature, but the website could use a little more color.

Also, it seems to be written in Java (run in the JVM?), so I will not touch it, but I hope others will.

JVM is not exposed at all. We plan to include OpenJDK in final distros so it runs totally self container.

Absolutely no Java semantics or concepts are leaked to the language.

Yes, It runs on the JVM. I did a simple implementation with it and I am impressed. JVM is not a concern to me.

What are your problems with the JVM, which is undoubtedly the most mature, advanced VM with the best DevOps-mechanisms out there?
