Actually, over at Tux4Kids, we've been thinking of how to make a good educational language interpreter (could be built around something existing like Python wyth PySDL, who knows) to help teach programming to young children... but we're already spread pretty thinly, so we'd need fresh meat in our ranks to head something like that up<nobr> <wbr></nobr>;-)
A lot of us (myself included) learned programming at a very young age with old computers like the 8-bit Ataris and 8-bit Commodores. A lot of us (myself included) are upset that more programming isn't taught in schools, and would love to do something about it.
Anyway, it's sort of what you were talking about<nobr> <wbr></nobr>;-)
