Thanks for all the replies - they have all been helpful.

On reflection I think our problems are probably design and people related.

Cheers,
Tim

Hi All,

I work on a desktop application that has been developed using python and
GTK (seewww.leapfrog3d.com).  We have around 150k lines of python code
(and 200k+ lines of C).

We have bigger numbers than yours here (although not for a desktop
application)
and of course we have the problems of a large size application, but
they have
nothing to do with Python. The real problem are sociological, not
language-related.
Essentially, if a project takes 10+ years and 10+ people, with most of
the people
new, you have an issue, but this is independent from the language.
Python is helping
us at least because it is readable and the situation would be probably
be worse with
another language. But as I said the software development practices
used are more
important than the language in this context.
