Thank you, Jarrod. I really appreciate your enthusiastic support for Python as a scientific programming language. You make very convincing arguments for the use of Python, and I will follow NiPy's progress.

How would you respond to concerns about Python's speed as an interpreted language and the impending Python 3000 language changes? Also, if I were to develop an interactive web application as a front end to a server-side Python application, are there any options to doing this in Python as well?

cheers,
