Speaking of olympiads (and IOI), how about including e.g. DeCAL in the 
standard FPC distribution (e.g. in packages or something like that), 
because C++ programmers have STL and it could sometimes be an advantage 
to them. I mean very few people are able to implement e.g. a Red-Black 
tree during the competition. And for the ACM ICPC it's somewhat worse 
since there it's even more vital to code your programs quickly, so 
usually C++ with STL ends up being the language of choice.
