make sure it is able to self host. that is, it should be written as much as possible in it's own language or a restricted subset which is easily buildable with existing tools.
Once the design is settled, i'll figure out how to make it self-hosting.
What's your Javascript like? Over the past year or so I've seen a few things that have somewhat downright amazed and astounded me.
Try this: http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/d1d81455dc21e10f742f (technically open source but not exactly readable)
There is something called asm.js which is making traction, not to say that I personally like it or anything.
And you can make exes and dlls: http://www.phpied.com/make-your-javascript-a-windows-exe/ (but I have no idea whether there is any equivalent on linux)
All I'm saying is that way back when I started Phix I would have ridiculed any suggestion involving Javascript; now I'm not so sure.
