Unfortunately it is not possible to vote only for the Python programmers,
making it impossible for me to vote in an ethical manner.  I know 
nothing of most of the other areas (Perl, etc.) and I won't resort
to random voting just to get in my votes for Paul, you, or the others.

(I assume I didn't miss something there.  I left the others
unselected and it refused my submission.)
