I dunno, I'm pretty interested in playing with it. I'm a little cautious of trashing this based on the claims so far without seeing where it goes. Anyone remember the iPod thread on Slashdot that declared it as a useless product that would never take off? For all I know there was a similar one about Rails.

It does make some big claims, but I've been looking for a reason to mess with Erlang for a while and this seems pretty neat.
