Bravo! Granted, it's yet another make replacement the world really doesn't need. But that said, and unlike all the other attemps, this actually seems to be better than make.
Almost always, these things are junk (Ant, I'm looking at you) which at best implement a subset of make's features in a "pure" way (and thus look good to people who don't understand make but like Java-or-whatever).
This one actually seems to understand what make needs (cleaner variable semantics, multiple outputs for a target) and what parts need to be tossed (all the default rules).
I'm impressed. But I still won't likely use it. The world doesn't need it.
