Sure, no problem. Starting over is probably a good plan. There were 3
main features of Delight:

- Python-like syntax
- Safer (but still not perfect) handling of nulls
- Object-capabilities security model (though I didn't know this at the time)

Are you planning on keeping all of them, or just the syntax?
