Adam,
Frankly, I am getting really tired of listening to you. I've seen
numerous good posts on this list, some post more good quality
information and arguments than others, and so far I have yet to see any
post of yours where you do not resort to insults and totally avoid the
argument. I understand people have different views, but all you are
doing is insulting anyone who dares not to agree with you, while making
yourself look childish and pathetic in the attempt. So: Eeither 1) Shut
up and quit wasting bandwidth, or 2) Grow up and recognize that your
being rude is not going to get you anywhere.
If you have different views, that's great, but your resorting to insults
for lack of anything better is getting really old.
While I do recognize that this isn't much better than what you are
posting, I hope that you will read it or that something will be done
about your responses, as they are contributing nothing at all useful to
any discussions.

Why *was* Nagios forked and re-written in Python?
There are too many examples to count.
You're missing the point: you've yet to provide any sort of argument
whatsoever. It's not automatically true that rewriting Nagios in Tcl
would gain the Tcl community more exposure, nor is it automatically
true that more exposure is a good or desirable thing.
You first have to show how rewriting Nagios in Tcl would gain them
more exposure. Then you have to show that the exposure would be a
good thing. Until you've done both, you're arguing with very
fundamental and conventional engineering wisdom; and you have not
actually presented an argument just tautologies.
Neither will be easy to prove, by and by large, most people don't give
a shit what language their applications are written in and rightly so.
Just gave you a bunch.
No, you've given me examples of wheel reinvention. Just because the
people reinventing the wheel thought it was a good thing doesn't
actually make it so. You personally have to present the case as to
why it is a good thing.
I want to apologize for my part. We just aren't going to see the same
side of this.
You can apologize, but I don't accept it. You want to actually
apologize? Admit you were wrong and retract, or act like an adult and
present an actual argument instead of wasting time.
