Here it is again... Python bypassed/discounted because, of all things, scoping by indentation!?!?
This used to surprise me. Until I hear more and more otherwise reasonable programmers list this as their number one reason for shunning Python. I gauge design defects by how much after market discussion/documentation a feature generates/requires. Scoping by indentation is a whopper of a defect. Could the PyPy people find some way (I don't how) to eliminate this stumbling block going forward?? That is, after they eliminate the GIL! John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
