Major Planned Features

Boolean operations and type

contains (for lists or strings)

Query Language (Experimental)

You should be able to ask the compiler to tell you any value or set of values in the compiled configuration.

Translation Language (Experimental)

For some configuration file formats we need a way to specify a particular organiztion for a given configuration structure (i.e. xml attribute or tag?).

Some options here could be:

Simple data export (json)
A Functional Transform similar to xslt or css transforms
A Templating language
DSL's
Annotations

Built In testing as a part of the language

A DSL for assertions.
A DSL for identifying tests.
A way to run tests only during validation stage.

Minor Fixes and Polish

Compiler caching (interface has been defined)
Strings as tuple fields?
Streaming Parsing?
Casting between types?
Better error messages.
Flags should allow different seperators for prefixed flags.
YAML export
HCL export
