I'll put my two cents in here..

I think the BEST approach is to have BOTH a built-in language (and which
one I'll leave to you folks to argue over ;), _AND_ to support a IAC/RPC
mechanism that folks can use to drive it from the language/platform of
their choice.

I suggest that we look at supporting XML-RPC (see
<http://www.scripting.com/frontier5/xml/code/rpc.html>). It's easy to
implement, platform agnostic, and is being backed by some important folks
in the W3C.
