Also, not sure if this list is aware that Factor now has row variables for inline row-polymorphic combinators:

Now that stack effect checking is mandatory, run-time checked combinators have been added which declare a run-time effect declaration:

That's where a lot of the practical side of things has been happening with regards to concatenative languages... Is there something that the more academically inclined languages like Joy provide that appeal to this list more?
