Glad to see a new release of Bend, fascinating cutting-edge stuff.

I had to look up "gambiarra": a Brazilian expression that means to use improvised methods to solve a problem with any avaiable material.

Totally understandable, I think you did the right thing by releasing early, even if it's still in rough shape, to get some public feedback. This forum can be a hit-or-miss, sometimes even great projects are not appreciated (and the opposite too). But I imagine some people are in the target audience who will see the project and actually explore the language, and follow along with its development.
