This is true. But python uses openssl, for example, and it must be updated from time to time, for example. The only difference is that the bugs are not discovered by python. In fact, I can say that Berkeley DB 4.7 snapshot releases crashed a lot with bsddb testsuite. Berkeley DB 4.7.25 is rock solid, in part, because of pybsddb and the feedback between me and Oracle people. > PS Thank you jcea for your wonderful work on improving bsddb! > Regardless of whether it appears in the standard library in the future > you're making many users very happy with your work. I would give a leg to know how many, actually :).
