Do you plan to release it as open source in the event of getting acquihired?

On a more serious note, if SaaS APIs are function calls, this is an equivalent of a constant. Let's build a cloud programming language! Anyone wants to write cons, car, cdr, cond, quote and lambda SaaSes?

Webshell.io tried to use JavaScript as cloud programming language, transforming every API endpoint/API call into a JavaScript object. Then you could script APIs and SaaS using JavaScript. Check this article on why JavaScript is the glue for APIs http://apieconomist.com/blog/2013/6/26/api-days-are-here-aga...
how would you "glue" everything together?

seriously, something really cool could come out of this...
