I've been involved with a few projects where the designers felt the need 
to invent their own language.  Invariably, it's ended up being a 
mistake.  Which language you pick (Python, Perl, and TCL are all 
plausable choices) is a far less important decision than the core 
decision not to try inventing your own.
