Great.
I'm no DD so I can't sponsor your package but I can give comments
regarding quality of your package.
- Question: looks like most of the compiler and runtime (inside
src/vm/...?) is written in C++ -> is it so that due to some constraint
the sw is only usable in amd64 hw ; or could the architecture be
"Any"? Jit-compiler maybe?
- In debian/control the long description might be longer. According
to homepage content, there is already quite set of features in
the language .. as a programmer choosing a programming language
I might be intested in knowing a bit about features, design goals,
what is it really good for etc. ?
- debian/docs is 0 bytes long ; I think it might be removed if it
is empty.
- debian/README.source is from template, if there is no description
about source package required, the file may be deleted
- a debian/watch -file could be very useful and works well
with github, see "man uscan" for examples.
- It might be easier if the sources inside .orig.tar.gz would
be inside directory named <packagename>-<version> instead of "src".
- Lintian gives warnings

+ Big plus: does what is promised. In your website the hello-world
tutorial works better if I save the source code to file
called ~hello.obs~ instead of "hello.obe" as instructed.
