Maybe ChrisB's ideas of 'spicing it up' would be a good first step?
It's hard to get good figures of how many users there are of the many programming languages we have at the moment. Nevertheless, it would be instructive to have a look at the front pages of the ones that are getting some good press to see what lessons can be gleaned from them. Over on scoop.it, there's been a series of articles on recent programming languages. That's be a good place to start, I reckon.
Something else that might attract another class of users to the "Euphoria Experience" would be a Euphoria to javascript compiler, see List of languages that compile to JS. More than half of my programming effort these days is web-focussed. I still do the other stuff for back-end tools and the like, but it'd be cool to be Euphoric in both arenas.
My two bob.
Kind regards,
