Short overview: The following interpreters are in the PyPy repository currently (or will be, in the case of Scheme): - Python (various people) - Prolog (me) - JavaScript (Leonardo Santagada) - Scheme (Jakub Gustak, not yet started) In addition, Christopher Armstrong is working on "SafeLisp": https://code.launchpad.net/~subol-hackers/subol/safelisp-rpython > Personally I have some interests in a few languages that I know, such as > R and pascal. I don't really know either of them very well, but I imagine that the problem with R would be that you would have to implement all sorts of numerical functions (which is a lot of effort) or interface to existing C libraries (which is not much fun, since the rctypes are a mess, currently).
