I don't know what you mean by the adjective 'academic'.  Oz is academic in
the sense that we don't care (right now) about syntactic similarity with
"mainstream" languages.  On the other hand, we are serious about 
implementation:
we have a production-quality system that we and others are using to build
real applications.  We are very interested in third-party users.  In that
sense, we're perhaps not 'academic'.
