PYTHON LOOSING FOR JAVA???????

[Fcamattti]

Hello for everybody????

So I have a doubt. I'd like to know what do you think about the joint
of efforts of Sun Microsystems and the Google to create a office web
based. I sincerely enjoy the idea althoug I'd like to know what will be
the future of this wonderful language called Python??????

Since Sun's existing StarOffice supports Python, _and_ Google is well
known as an enthusiastic endorser of Python
(http://www.python.org/Quotes.html etc etc), why would any possible
cooperation between Sun's Office apps, and Google, cause anybody to
_worry_ about "the future of ... Python"?!

Taking a leaf from the various publishers and author's
guilds out there...

Obviously Google is threatening the profitability of
programmers and their ability to make a honest day's
living. Why would people hire programmers to create new
innovative solutions, when they can just use Google to
search teh Interweb for source code which Google has
stolen from the rightful owners???

*wink*

Sun and Google do not cover 100% of possible uses of Python. From my POV
i.e., they have nothing that could help in writing ETL tasks helpers on
iSeries. Python is unstoppable here. ;)

Computing is large area. Much larger than aunt Tilly's laptop.

Yes, Python is already looser than Java.
