Hi, Open source implementations of Fortress and X10 recently became available, and both build cleanly from source and seem to work. Fortress and X10 are implemented in Java, but X10 is introducing a new intermediate representation called Tucson which currently interpreted by a Java program. I heard Chapel (the other HPCS language effort) will generate C++ code, but I haven't seen a code drop from Cray yet. It's necessary to register with Sun to get access to their Subversion tree.
