Just discovering the language with this post. I'm must say I'm impressed by the syntax. I've read part of the documentation and understand every code example just by reading it, which is sufficiently rare to be mentioned.

I'm thinking to give it a try as a scrpiting language but find it too bad it seems no longer maintained. Code has not changed since 2 years.

To note, there is a pure Go implementation of Io[1] which is actively worked on.

Also noticed this project[1] by IO author which lets you use Python 3 within Io. The readme is rather short but there is a nice example in the sample/ folder[2].
