Hi I am new to Google App Engine. I know it is impossible for one to
expect the App Engine to support all languages like C, C++, PHP, Perl
etc etc.

I would like to know why currently only Perl and Java is supported ?
By only supporting Python and Java it is implicitly trying to ask
developers to learn the above 2 languages exclusively.

I have no arguments against Java but choosing Python over others make
me wonder. Perl is quite established in it's own right so why didn't
it make it into the list ? Python whitespace is getting on my nerves.

I admit I am biased to Python due to my Perl leanings but shouldn't
such an excellent language like Perl be considered to be on par with
Python ?

I don't want to start a flame war. I am just curious on the choice
made to use Python instead.

Thanks.
