Nobody knows ;-)  I guess it's C/C++ since it's supposed to run on Linux, Win,
Mac and even Palm.  Maybe it's Java.

They do have libraries for Python, C/C++, and.....hmmm....some obscure
language.......what's it called......Pearl or something?  ;-)  But no Java, so
maybe it isn't written in Java :-P

It looks like they'll have several releases during the 3rd quarter.

It would be, especially if we're going to collaborate ;-)  (I'm on a roll.)
