What's even more suspect in that thread is the blanket prohibition
against Python for being too slow. That's, like, so 1990's. ;-)
Also seems to show that they don't understand that when you write a line
in Python 99% of the work is actually done in C code. Arguing this
stuff can be pretty futile, however.
Thanks, Henry, for bringing it up on Ubuntu's list. Since Barry Warsaw
(one of the original Python core developers) is on there I think there
probably is hope of something coming out of it despite the negative
comments in the thread.
