Ward could comment more cogently, but I believe that
as an implementation of acceptance testing as discussed in
http://fit.c2.com/wiki.cgi?AboutTesting, having a single language for
FIT is less important than having the same kind of tools available in
languages and platforms that make sense in the context of the development
effort.

I've used versions of FIT in Java, perl, and ruby.  The convenience
of writing the tests in the target language far outweighs any other
considerations, from my experiences.
