Python is also far more widespread than Guile. I think the most significant argument for Python is that KiCad also exposes its data model in Python; that's a clear path to more shared effort and simpler portability/convertability of user data. That nearly the whole world is now afraid to use Python2 is, well, unfortunate, but not an insurmountable problem. > The fact that the original scheme backends were the product of multiple > authors is telling. Are there many enough data points to actually tell anything at all? I guess no in gEDA/lepton, for both Python and scheme. //Peter
