Ideally, I'd like a multiparadigm language that includes, at least, functional programming and that deals nicely with concurrency and distributed computing (C/C++ with MPI is not exactly fun for me), that runs on Linux/Unixes in both 32 and 64 bit architec., that has good support for I/O and file processing, Web programming, numerical/scientific computations, and interfaces to other languages. Other nice features would be good debuggers, comprehensive docs, easy use of literate programming, and speed at least comparable to Python
Erlang might be another option. On your list of things, i'd say that the numerical/scientific stuff will probably be its weaker point.
Another option might be stackless python (or pypy which is taking over that), which gives python concurrency.
I'm just starting on the ctmcp book, so forgive my ignorance, but what about oz/mozart keeps it from being top choice?
