Clojure still too verbose. Not optimal.

Could get Arc on phones. Maybe iPod. Worth a try.

Bug report: "Rainbow" poor name. Please fix.

I have to say that I like the name; it's also a multilingual pun, which gives it major bonus points (http://arclanguage.org/item?id=5785).

Pun was clear. Merit of French less so. Problem with name: Hard to google.

> Hard to google

True. When I search for "rainbow lisp", google asks me did I mean "rainbow lips". Rainbow's github page is the 6th result for "arc rainbow", alone among many discussions of the shape of the multicoloured atmospheric phenomenon.

Once we've taken over the world, I think it will get better.

> Merit of French

I happen to live in france. It was a convenient pun. No other reason, especially not love of the language that I haven't got to grips with even after nine years of living here.

Agree on "absent leader." Lisp needs not pg, but Lain.

Write CPAN for Arc, in Arc. Find holes in language, too. Worked great for Ruby, Haskell.
