What is probably valid is that having much to do is true for everybody and not much of an argument, is it? > As for the parallelism: that means getting even more people to volunteer for > the task.

All I can say is that I'm writing an app that I want to be cross-platform and that Python does not allow it to be just that, while Google gives you 17400 hits if you look for "python cross-platform". Now, this is also some kind of *truth* if only one of a mismatch between reality and wish- ful thinking... Regards, Dinu
