No, but I do wonder how many other users of Python are poets-in-residence, or indeed, published poets? And congratulations on the release of Scandroid Version 1.0a (written in Python) on 18.iii.05 (as you elegantly record it). All this begs the question: Have any poems been written in Python (similar to the well-known Perl Poetry (see http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Programming/Languages/Perl/Poetry/ )? Indeed, have any poems ever been written about Python - other than "The Zen of Python" by Tim Peters? A limerick, even? There once was a language called Python... (which is pretty close to having three anapaestic left feet) or more promisingly, rhyme-wise, but metrically rather worse : There once was a mathematician named van Rossum...
