I just wandered into Microsoft .NET Language Partners site.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/partners/language/default.asp

"The multi-language capability of the .NET Framework and Visual Studio
.NET enables developers to use their existing programming skills to
build all types of applications and XML Web services. Find out about
each .NET-based language and how the common language runtime (CLR) can
help you build more integrated, higher-quality applications faster."

The languages and vendors listed include: APL Dyadic Systems),COBOL
(Fujitsu COBOL), Eiffel( Interactive Software Engineering), Forth
(Dataman), FORTRAN
(Fujitsu Fortran & Salford Software), Haskell (Massey University),
Standard Machine Language, SML,(Microsoft Research), Mercury (The
University of Melbourne), Mondrian (Massey University), Oberon (Computer
Systems Institute at ETH),Pascal (Queensland University of Technology &
TMT Development), Python (ActiveState), RPG (ASNA), Scheme (Northwestern
University), and SmallScript(SmallScript corp.)

Ada should be at the head of this list!
