You talked about "batteries included", and that isn't related to the
language. I said .NET in reference to what you said. The part about the
language is my own opinion, I just didn't want to say anything about C#,
Boo, J#, Nemerle or any other language that targets the .NET framework.
In the case of Python, as well as Java, the language has the same name
as the framework, and this may have lead you to mistake me.
