You could also have a look at Objective Caml[1]. It is a functionnal
language (ML style with type inference for those interested) but with
modules and object oriented capabilities. It has not pre-build
distributed facilities but toolkits have been built on it, like
Ensemble[2].
On Erlang, one thing to notice is that reliability is in charge of the
programmer. But maybe your are involved in some other projects using
Erlang. ;)

</I>
OCaml can be compiled in both bytecode and native code for about any
platform (from ARM to Alpha through x86 [2b]). And people have made
hacks to dynamically load bytecode and native code into
programs[3]. Also notice that bytecode is portable across platforms.
Sorry if it is a bit of topic, but I could not resist for this blatant
advertising. ;) And maybe NeL will have more that just Python support...
Best regards,
