I think you're right. I'm not convinced that it is a problem that 
can be solved. One person is looking for a Java replacement, 
another wants a hobby language for a personal website, and yet 
another wants better metaprogramming than you get with C++. A 
good marketing pitch for any individual is at best an irrelevant 
one for most of the rest.
