Please upgrade Mono compiler.
Im really missing generics 
. Because of that solving problems using collection(convertion of Objects to other types) results in exceeding time limit even for acceptable algo.

It would be really great to support some popular up and coming languages such as Clojure, Scala, Groovy, etc (in order of my personal preference).
SPOJ is a great way for people to try languages out in general, so I imagine people would appreciate it.
Oh, and I second the Objective-C. Shouldn't be too hard to implement since gcc supports it already.
Thanks!
I'd like to see Factor support in SPOJ.

The Python problem has been discussed many times. 2.5 is a lot faster than 2.6. And most likely also faster than 2.7. That is why I rather prefer to stick to 2.5.
Instead it could make sense to upgrade the 3.x branch from time to time to see how Python 3.x develops.
I see the point in keeping 2.5 around, but it would be nice to be able to use to the newer additions in the 2.x branch as well. Isn't it possible to have both 2.5 and 2.7 available?
Technically possibly easy. But the value you gain from that is pretty low. Python 2.5 is good enough. If you dont think so I rather recommend to use 3.x.

I have seen that Javascript (spidermonkey) is available on ideone. Can this be added or better replace the rhino which is obviously not very popular here.

Clojure is developing rapidly, so version 1.1 feels positively ancient nowadays. Upgrading to 1.3 would be really nice.

I'd also like to see Objective-C... and I'd like to see it badly enough that I'll gladly volunteer to write any extensions to the online judge that are necessary to enable it. Yes, one often gets just what one pays for with free coding help, but I'm the exception, I swear! Admittedly, I've recently been doing only mobile and web development, but I have past experience in writing and integrating test harnesses, which I suspect is not dissimilar to the process of writing a judge.
Can anyone comment on whether there are plans underway to add Obj-C support?
(As an aside: I posted a thread in FAQ before finding this one. My apologies for my newbish error... if anyone with admin rights has a way to move that thread to this forum, please feel free to do so.)

Racket ( racket-lang.org ) would be a good addition. I believe it's now one of the more popular Scheme variants.
Standard ML is notably missing altogether. I believe the main players are MLton, SML/NJ, and MLKit. As for Schemes, I mentioned Racket, but it would be nice to add Larceny Scheme, a high-performance option.

Oh, this is the place to complain about language version!
Please consider upgrading to version 2 of D language. D1 is deprecated and almost nobody is using it.
