Quick comment on the languages from a dev community perspective: The Nova/Swift community is Python-based, so you won't directly reuse it, whether you use C++ or Erlang. For new contributors, you either target very experienced C++ developers (to get concurrency/scalability right), or moderately-experienced Erlang devs. Both probably come in short supplies... but you might find more people willing to learn Erlang than people willing to perfect their C++ skills (me for example).
I've a slight preference for Erlang because it will probably be more difficult to do it wrong, and my gut feeling is that Python devs might be more convertible to Erlang than to C++.
