Trying to find the happy medium for all here. 

I really, don't care what technology or system is used, so long as it will 
round trip. As I see it, it is much easier to take the current system and 
continue development than to rewrite it in python. Of course if some of the 
devs have time on their hands ... 

A general note about religion, it is counter productive to innovation. Just 
like software patents. :-)
