I don't know. I suppose that depends on how you define 'bad'! For me, it is often inconvenient, because I'd prefer to use Python but generally find that I have to choose something else if I want to do the best possible for any particular project. In my case, multimedia and game support is patchy, and web development support is still oriented towards the Java/enterprise user - if CGI doesn't suffice, that is. In the original poster's case, it's seemingly because specific database support seems to be lacking. Improving the libraries in these areas would hopefully increase the diversity of Python's potential applications rather than diminish it. -- Ben Sizer -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
