Certainly looking at it will be worthwhile, though as it stands, Prothon 
has sufficient syntactical ugly (IMO) to make me feel nauseated (even 
with all the syntactical variations discussed on the mailing list).  To 
make Mark Hahn feel a bit better, I have the same opinion of the 'Self' 
language, though Prothon does look quite a bit better than Self (what 
was/is Sun thinking?)
