Yes it does. But long story short, Python WILL BE supported in Sailfish one
way or the other, that much I can promise. Sailfish/Mer basically is
"Fedora mobile" which means that just about anything that works on Fedora
will work on Sailfish too. Jolla might not support Python but there will be
third party support if that's the case. And I have no problem with that as
Jolla have around fifty devs or something so if they only support C++ in
Harbour it's basically a matter of resources. But today there is Openrepos
that "supports" PyQt. And if you don't like GPLv3 there is also Pyotherside
which is a QML plugin so that is not the same thing as PyQt but still could
work for most apps.

Happy new year all!
