Hi Jack, Adding to the chorus. There's definitely interest on my end. Currently, I'm working on CASPER-izing a little SoC dev board that Altera produces using an open source frontend (Scilab) that Wei Liu has been porting CASPER blocks over to. Still at the proof of concept step, but I'm certainly motivated in ultimately developing this into something the community could use.
