Yes, have heart Elixir (based on Erlang) being mentioned often in the
last months, and I think I have seen some sample code too.

But I would not consider it a real universal language currently, and
being based on a VM makes it not suited well for embedded design and
kernel development. 

You made an interesting point: OOP design, considered fundamental 20
years ago, is now only one paradigm of many for modern language
developers. While functional programming becomes more important. I have
done much OOP programming myself, for GUI related stuff I still prefer
it, but I am beginning to learn its disadvantages.
