My experience has been that: a) Python developers come from the better end of the programmer pool. It doesn't really matter that there are 100 times as many PHP programmer if you wouldn't want to employ 99% of them. In an environment where the Python programmers are rare you can be pretty sure that the ones there are the ones with an interest in finding out the best way to do things, not just the ones for whom cutting code is a 9 to 5 job. b) Python is pretty easy to learn. Any half way competent programmer picks it up pretty quickly. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
