I initially put a caveat on my comment and then removed it -- and it admitted that I haven't been very public about the work. The attention and support would definitely be better if I published on Lambda, for example.
I didn't mean to moan about my project; I wanted to moan about lack of interest in the problem. For example, where my work has been publicized, the problem itself hasn't received much in the way of interest. Even the Ph.D. students who have worked on it have said, "But [Lisp/Smalltalk/Java(I'm sadly not joking here)/etc.] does everything you need to do." I shouldn't be surprised; there's no one to blame here but human nature. But I'm still occasionally frustrated. Of course, if you're interested in my project, my email is in my profile.
