1. Compiler vs. Wish list
For my part, I would pay any semi-reasonable amount for a Eu
compiler/Eu-to-C translator. While there is a speed penalty for
implementing a feature in code rather than in the core language, I doubt it
will generally be as much as 5x. I could be wrong--if anyone has some
benchmarks, please share.

As a developer, I'd love to get my hands on a Eu to C converter..
Write and test your app in EU, translate to C, compile..
A lot easier than writing a C app by hand in my opinion.
You could even *gasp* add code to the generated C to make it
multithreading..
Now that would be nice..
