Are you going to implement Lua and JavaScript on top of Chibi?

Alex has told me he intends to do at least Lua. I myself don't have
any such plans, although I do have an implementation of a subset of
JavaScript with s-expression syntax in the works, pretty much as
a demonstration of what a classical eval-apply interpreter looks
like rather than for practical purposes, though it will also have a
"compiler" that generates JavaScript syntax from the s-expression
version.

The frontends that interest me are, in no particular order,
Lua, JavaScript, Bash and Go.
Most likely I won't have time for serious hacking until R7RS
WG1 is finalized (hopefully Real Soon Now), and then the
project that interests me most is the native x86 backend,
so new frontends would be sometime next year.
