Pony is an open-source, object-oriented, actor-model, capabilities-secure, high-performance programming language.

Pony is still pre-1.0 and as such, semi-regularly introduces breaking changes. These changes are usually fairly easy to adapt to. Applications written in Pony are currently used in production environments.
