And of course we're not the only ones. In fact, I believe that we're not even among the firms which have reported their experiences in the official "Python Success Stories" -- IBM, Industrial Light and Magic, NASA, etc, etc, are there, but we arent. I guess we just prefer to play our cards closer to our chest -- after all, if our competitors choose to use inferior languages, it's hardly to our advantage to change that;-).
