Adding to that, they pick the language that works best for them and the
situation. Python has a significant advantage in many applications
because it is dynamic and can be used for rapid development. IMHO,
usually more rapid than Java. Hopefully Java being GPL'd will make it
easier to deploy applications, especially on Linux. There are many
applications where Java has a significant advantage. I plan to make use
of both.
