Thanks for the further responses from Ron Savage and Jenda Krynicky.

As a follow-up, yesterday I decided to name the language "IRL" (Intermediate Relational Language), at least for now.

Its nice and short, and its very descriptive. An intermediate language for expressing relational structures and operations.

The naming convention is similar to the PIL (Pugs Intermediate Language) used in the Perl 6 camp, and they serve the same sort of purpose.

The name IRL could also double as a short form of Intermediate Rosetta Language, but I won't be touting this as I may possibly rename Rosetta to something else in the future, though there's no real impetus to do so now.
