Personally, I work for a division in our company that has converted over the last few years our entire software line from an old, Windows-only mix of C and VCL-stuff, to a serious mid-sized product which recently clocked in at about 165k lines of Python code (about 600k more in third party libs!) that's fast, effective, flexible, multi-platform and highly responsive to our customer's evolving needs. We actually did a complete rewrite from the ground up -- a dangerous thing to do, but the legacy product was so out of date that it had to be done... and I don't think any other set of tools would have been able to let us do so as well, in as short of a period of time, or as iteratively and in cooperation with our customer base.
Thank you for sharing this. If it has not been already, could this be shared as a Python success story on the site? (With proprietary detail omitted as needed for approval, of course.)
