Am I wrong in assuming the eventual goal is mitigating python (which is inefficient) in favor of an all Qt-based Ubuntu that uses javascript (also inefficient but has far more developers) or C++ for basic apps?
I know I've seen a lot of blueprints where things boil down to "get rid of python in [x]" for resource conservation purposes. And I've had a dev hint at the idea that the new toolkit will eventually work for desktop apps as well. (I'm deliberately trying to make that statement more obtuse just in case what *I* thought he said isn't what he meant.) This isn't to say that python won't be supported, but I would assume things like python will be relegated to second-party status as the toolkit shapes up and becomes more robust?
