In order to entice developers away from those other languages REAL has to have comparable language features and then something extra. I'd say RAD is the "extra". But additional language features may be needed as well.

Fortran offers numerical libraries
Java has portability, class introspection and serialization and several other items C++ has the ability to interface to just about anything you can throw at it, inline code, etc

I'd love to see REAL steal the best from each of these
