The sad fact (at least to me), Ruby is getting a lot of attention
these days.
Why Python isn't getting this attention although is a much more mature
language and it is used by many big, big names?
And do I dare to say it is much more charming?
The opinion of a PHP developer who's playing with Python as well:
I've come across Python almost everywhere. Many programs I use (or I've
evaluated) are written in Python or use it for scripting: source control
software (Subversion, Bazaar, Mercurial), IDEs (Komodo Edit), popular
web applications (Zope, Trac)... If you're looking for a script for
admin tasks your search results will probably contain something in
Python. If you want to build a Firefox extension you'll find a *.py file
sitting around.
But I've never came across a Ruby app. Sure, I know Ruby exists and
people are very enthusiastic about it (though they often mistake it with
Ruby on Rails), but that's all.
Ruby is popular among bloggers but I'm not sure whether it's popular
among developers.
