The Verse Programming language

Tim’s vision of the metaverse
- Social interaction in a shared real-time 3D simulation
- An open economy with rules but no corporate overlord
- A creation platform open to all programmers, artists, and designers, not a walled garden
- Much more than a collection of separately compiled, statically- linked apps: everyone’s code and content must interoperate dynamically, with live updates of running code
- Pervasive open standards. Not just Unreal, but any other game/simulation engine e.g. Unity.
This looks really really interesting. Simon Peyton James is a major contributor to the Haskell project.
