The same is with Zope/Plone Zope/Plone makes two distinct applications : the web application server Zope, and the CMS Plone. (Web category), though I know, that Zope has some parts of code written in C. Yes. Mostly for low-level parts that couldn't be done in pure Python, at least by the time they were written. Django?

And of course most Linux desktop distributions (especially Ubuntu and Redhat/Fedora) have a huge number of small components that rely on Python entirely or to put together the frontend. Great examples of this are Bazaar VCS and the Anaconda installer. The Twisted project isn't a program per se, but it's written in Python and is really incredible as well.
