Well, I'm certainly not about to do the comparison myself. I only have so much time, and presently I am not sufficiently motivated about this topic to invest any time in it. A suggestion: *you* brought up the subject, so if you want us to pay attention to your claims, then *you* had better be prepared to get your hands dirty and do the actual work to support it. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
