In The Future of Programming in Node.jsI love seeing other languages using Node.js's event loop.
Having spent too much time on Node.js, full async I/O is a concept I have a hard time living without. I know Node.js's execution process is special, yes, and I know that on threaded/forked environments, the exact same thing happens (looking at you mod_cgi), but I still cringe every time I have to make an I/O call in another language that would be considered as blocking in Node.js's context.
At the end of the day, languages are just languages, with their pros and their cons, but with projects like theses, some concepts we just love come to life in other languages and get us reconsider these languages in a new light.
