   I can certainly help out with a compiler, but we haven't yet
established the need for a new compiler (as opposed to adapting
and existing one) or a new langauge.

   There are other options, like Sather, and I may have a lead
toward an existing Ellie compiler, so we will have to wait and see.
I would leave C++ as a last option.
