[stanza](http://lbstanza.org/) is one of the more interesting recent languages i've seen - it is designed from the ground up to be gradually typed, which is the end goal of projects like pyre.


This looks at first sight like a cross between Python and LISP without parentheses (not saying that in a bad way). I'm actually glad that they choose this syntax, because a lot of people get hung up on the parentheses.

Have you used this for anything? If so, how was the experience?


no, just wrote a couple of toy programs. but it's on my short list of languages i keep an eye on because it looks like they hit a sweet spot in language design, implementation and ergonomics, and they might be exactly what i need for some future project. (d and pony are a couple of others in that camp)
