This is an ambitious project, but it will take a long time before it reaches the necessary critical mass to take over the world.

You could close a number of immediate gaps by provide integration with existing COBOL libraries. COBOL is the original "programming in english" language and is still actively in use.

COBOL is not a controlled natural language, so it might be difficult to integrate it with EnglishScript. It might be easier to re-use features from other controlled natural languages such as Attempto Controlled English.
