In this case, our existing C language for writing our production code is not well suited for the task we're applying it too. You could make an argument that the virt-host-validate could be written in Python, but I think it is preferred to keep all our deployable code written in compiled languages, leaving the scripting languages for our supporting build system.
Any hard arguments on why that's preferential? I don't see a reasoning as to not ship python code as many other project do just fine. -- IBM Systems Linux on Z & Virtualization Development -------------------------------------------------- IBM Deutschland Research & Development GmbH Schönaicher Str. 220, 71032 Böblingen Phone: +49 7031 16 1819 -------------------------------------------------- Vorsitzende des Aufsichtsrats: Matthias Hartmann Geschäftsführung: Dirk Wittkopp Sitz der Gesellschaft: Böblingen Registergericht: Amtsgericht Stuttgart, HRB 243294
