Yes, there is no doubt Ruby is gaining traction - mostly due to the success of Ruby on Rails. I was in the Ruby community in the very early days and it was like being in a quiet backwater. As soon as ROR came on the scene the whole thing just exploded. I chose Python over Ruby because it has more maturity and stability (in terms of the product). Python does the job and does it well and is steadily growing and improving. D has been around for several years at least. It doesn't really compete with Python though. But not sure if it would be suitable for the product mentioned at the start of this thread. Cheers, Tony -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
