Wouldn't a Erlang project be better, specially as there is the Perl and 
Python projects which are there for probably the same reasons?

Also saying this from a Elixir (language which borrows a lot from Erlang, 
like it's VM, librairies and fault-tolerance) developer point of view 
which tried to package pleroma few months ago in my overlay, there is a 
bunch of shared dependencies and I'm pretty sure there will be more 
Elixir applications in the wild.
