Just to clear up the subject, I don't think that Python is the enemy
either.
We already had one Israeli OSDC conference after three YAPCs:
http://www.osdc.org.il/
It was successful and very fun. In 2007 we didn't have another one
unfortunately, and instead opted for a lower-profile, Perl-specific,
one-day
and one-track Israeli Perl Workshop.
I should note that I was also the one who jump-started the Israeli Python
meetings, albeit I passed the baton of chief Python organiser to someone
else, who is actually a Pythoneer.
I'm not using Python much, so I'm not fluent in it, and so far don't like
writing in it too much, but it's a good language and technology.
I still think that the "NASA Using Python" thing as presented is
misleading.
However, this thread gave me a really wicked idea for a parody site (not
just
of http://www.python.org/
of course), which I'm planning to take forward.
