We also already have a pretty functional package manager (https://github.com/nimrod-code/babel) and many packages already make use of it: http://nimrod-lang.org/lib.html#babel

I see the Babel doco has now been changed (10 hrs ago - any relation to this HN post?) to say I can run Babel against Nimrod 0.9.4 stable instead of needing to build Nimrod from source. This is great news, I was put off by the language's package manager not working against the stable release version. I look forward to giving this a try.

It's great news indeed. It seems I underestimated how many people will be having trouble building babel due to this. Next time I will do my best to make sure that it works with the latest Nimrod release.

I will say building Nimrod from source is quite literally the easiest language that I've compiled before, aside from Node.js! Super easy :)
