Re: [Jython-users] How good is Jython?

[Rich S. <rse...@ya...>]

Hi Joshua,

I can understand your suspicion, it is hard to believe that something like 
Jython could go undiscovered if it was really any good.

But, it has.

FWIW, at my company, we have developed a very large & complex body of software 
using Jython. It has been deployed at quite a few Fortune 500 companies, and it is 
working very well.

We have encountered almost no problems with it. It really works, and the 
combination of Jython/Java is the best developement environment I have ever 
used.  

Finn and Samuele have done an amazing job of tracking new Python features, 
Jython is never far behind the current state of the art. On the rare occasion 
we find a bug, they have always been quick to provide a fix.
