I think Roger has the best view & so I would like him to do what he 
thinks is right.  Fortunately, that's what's gonna happen no matter what 
we say here.



But I am interested in things like:

Support for semiduals (like &.: but applying v to only one operand and 
the result)

Using multiple cores effectively in a single J program

Using GPUs as numeric coprocessors

Taking advantage of SSE3 instruction set

Hand-coding +/ . * using SSE3 to get the ultimate perf in matrix 
multiply (I have offered to code the inner loops for this)

perf improvements in ;@:(f&.>)

A primitive like -: that checks the type of empties


...and, I'd like to get the tacit language back, just as a monument to 
Ken's brilliance.
