Doug "cheddar cheese" Holton (who has a long history of posting seriously confused and/or abusive stuff under a number of aliases) is a developer of a "competing" language named Boo. I suppose that in his view, language advocacy is a zero-sum game, so positive comments about Python can be considered as FUD against his own project. He's even invented his own del.icio.us tag for this purpose: http://del.icio.us/tag/pythonfud </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
