#12It's still very much used at SkipLabs. In fact, it's the language that SQLive is written in: http://sqlive.io
Unfortunately, we use a proprietary fork of SKIP, so that's why the OSS project looks dead.
We might open-source our version some day, but no plans for now.

#13It's so dead that even the Facebook copyright at the bottom was not updated

#14Looks interesting but here's what I don't understand. So many programming languages do not show example code on the homepage. That's like if Mazda didn't show cars on their homepage. Sure, you won't really know what it's like to drive it without getting your hands dirty but at least let me see the trim.
Great feedback! This is a big oversight.

Even worse, the "tutorial" is a challenge of sorts, where you have to guess at the right answer given hints.

This sounds interesting... Though it doesn't seem like that domain is working.

#17It mentions on the home page:
> Caching with Reactive Invalidation
But a Cmd+F for "cach" in the docs doesn't turn anything up. Anybody know where it goes into more detail on that?

#18A whole homepage about a programming language, and nowhere on the page does it show the programming language. :-/

Fixed! thanks!

#20Is it used anywhere? Github seams dead and the main contributor have left Facebook to start SkipLabs with DB related product SQLive.
That's what SQLive is written in. Hence the name SkipLabs!
