To me it looks a lot more like Java for C++ Programmers, adding C++
style elements to a Java like syntax. 
The can of worms they opened for their concept of versioning is really
"interesting".

On the other hand this language is enough Java (incl. GC) and enough C++
to please either everybody or nobody. Performance will be a key factor
IMHO.
