The implications of Kay's talk are potent; and when one considers that his 
team at VPRI have mostly fulfilled their vision to reduce the tens/hundreds 
of millions of lines of code needed for personal computing down to under 
20,000 lines (includes OS, networking, graphics, office apps, web 
browsing), the implications are stunning. 

There's much more information available at VPRI's website on the STEPS 
project: 

http://vpri.org/html/writings.php 

There, filter by "Fundamental New Computer Technologies" and look at the 
annual reports to the NSF for detailed descriptions; the most recent report 
was released Oct. 31 2011, at http://www.vpri.org/pdf/tr2011004_steps11.pdf

The OMeta language is described  in Alessandro Warth's doctoral 
dissertation: http://www.vpri.org/pdf/tr2008003_experimenting.pdf
