Interesting question! I'm not aware of "production use" of Termite
but if someone knows please speak up!
I would like to ask you a question... what are you trying to do with
Termite or Erlang, and why do you have a specific interest in Termite?
One of the nice things about Gambit is that it can be used to
implement Termite-like embedded languages relatively easily. All the
infrastructure is there (networking, object serialization, efficient
threads). If you want to see how, look at the example in examples/
distr-comp particularly examples/distr-comp/dc.scm . If that's not
exactly what you want, go ahead and change it. Try that with Erlang!
