If you run ChucK on a Unix-like system, like Linux or OSX, as a restricted user, it shouldn't be able to do anything nasty to the actual installation of the operating system. OTOH, the low-level connection to the sound interface means that the watchdog needs to be active, or folks can crash your computer with an endless loop without waits. I'm not completely sure about the status of the watchdog on Linux.
This would be hosted on a virtual linux server somewhere so there isn't a sound dev. Probably what would happen is the scripts would be ran for a short period of time to produce an mp3 and then that gets posted. -- Zed A. Shaw http://zedshaw.com/
