The nice thing of Nim is that it is just like Python a dynamic language. Not in 
typing etc. but in growth. You can strive for world domination and (will) fail, 
or you grow in quality and users and it just happens to you.

I'm not a 'programmer', I just fiddle with things and have been following the 
Python mailing lists since 1.4.something. You know what? Exactly the same 
discussions over and over again. Just like parts of this one and the docs 
discussion and ....

So, has anyone ever analysed the Python feature set against its growth over 
time? Has anyone ever analysed what of all those discussions ever actually led 
to something? Or was it mostly a matter of the right individual effort followed 
by a pep?

There is one very little thing that annoys me in almost every language, the 
lack of a standard, reference, core, graphics vector (and colour vector) math 
implementation. One that follows the rules of the normal mathematical axis, 
y=up, x=right, z=into the screen and has transformation matrices for all other 
systems they have come up with. Similar with colour, a unit-less vector rgb<0, 
1, 0.75> that can be transformed into any form and colour space.
