I asked in the larger IT deps I know of, and while the name was known twice there was a non-too-subtle thump direction.
Might those Enterprises over here be situated part way in the pond with less language barrier ?

>Any language can call any other language's function through an intermediate call, and objects are respected. This feature was added a couple days after calls for it were made on the forum, which suggests to me integration at a pretty deep level using a meta-language definition common to all languages.

Which is great for integration but bad for testing overhead:
points to own implementation which needs to be tested to work like the real one if you use some libs for that language.

JSON should be good enough for all other languages if C is exposed similar to Python of vfp as a fall back.
