Caterpillar

The idea I presented yesterday about the interaction of event sourcing and compile-time optimizations, would require some level of integration between Caterpillar's tooling, including the compiler, and an event sourcing framework.

The advantages of that are attractive, but there are disadvantages too. We'll see how this develops. I'm less concerned these days, about Caterpillar being seen as a general-purpose language. It's a long-term goal, but there are problems to solve in the meantime.
