Hmm. I read this as
Problem: not enough hackers to maintain our PL languages.
Proposed solution: add more PL languages.
Somehow this doesn't seem quite right.
If pl/ruby is going to get into the core, it should be because of demand
for it based on its own merits. I don't think this has got anything to
do with pl/python.
