That's too simplistic a viewpoint. We're trying to deliver C++ code and documentation. It matters a whole lot more _that_ we do it, and do it well, than it matters how we do it. There are some jobs that C++ handles very poorly by comparison to other tools, and if there's a better tool out there we shouldn't be afraid to exploit it. Besides, Python is written in an old-fashioned variant of C++ ;-) -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com _______________________________________________ Boost-docs mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe and other administrative requests: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/boost-docs
