You didn't include an email.

I've been having success with Go for backend work, and easy C integration in this kind of database like this would be useful for what I do. I'm not sure if R integration should be a priority though, since most R users I know are ambivalent about it (whatever, small sample size), and because Julia development continues to improve.

Thanks for your comment. My email is terence (at) siganakis [dot] com if you would like to chat.

The R integration stuff is more for the data science crowd. I feel it would be useful to have a streamlined way of writing a query to return a subset of a large database and then be able to manipulate it in R as if it were a data frame / matrix. I am interested in seeing how Julia plays out too.
