Python lacks pipelines indeed. But there are several Python libraries for running pipelines available: * http://pypi.python.org/pypi/iterpipes/ * http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pipeline/ I'd say Python is not so nice language for other reasons, like metaclasses, complex attribute lookups, etc. Anyway, I believe it is quite OK for practical purposes. -- Andrey Web: http://claimid.com/vlasovskikh IM: xmpp:andrey.vlasovsk...@gmail.com
