So I'm pretty new to jython and so far I luv it. But I'm a bit concerned about its future. Noticed there really isn't an active effort at bug fixes, new versions, etc.. I'm a bit confused as to why there is an active community for python and java. but not for jython. I suppose jython can either be the best of both worlds or the worst of both worlds (still too new to say).=20 Interested in other peoples take on why our numbers are dwindling relative to python and java.

We're teaching Jython to 400 students this semester at Georgia Tech=20 (http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/cs1315), and over 1000 since we started=20 with this new course for non-majors in Spring 2003. This semester is=20 the first one that we're now teaching Python in our majors CS course as=20= well. Now there's growing discussion about using Jython in more=20 courses, including some of our graduate courses. I haven't really been following any of these communities closely, but I=20= don't see any sign of Jython dying off.

We implemented our weblogic server scripting tool (WLST) based on jython=20 after considering several other java scripting interpreters=20 (http://dev2dev.bea.com/codelibrary/code/wlst.jsp). Jython is catching up real fast here and in the weblogic developer=20 community. We are also using Jython extensively in our unit test=20 framework and it is proving to be an asset. I dont see any sign of=20 Jython dying off either.. :-). -satya Mark Guzdial wrote: > We're teaching Jython to 400 students this semester at Georgia Tech=20 > (http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/cs1315), and over 1000 since we started=20 > with this new course for non-majors in Spring 2003.

I realize "behind" is a perception and different to most people. I would be interested in knowing if people use Jython more for doing "python like" stuff in Java without worrying about the CPython side of things or if keeping up with the "Python joneses" is a concern as well.
