ManishIShah asked about "an industrial class Office package that has perl at its core."

I would like to echo the question, but substitute Python for perl. I'm sure ;) that I'll be corrected if there is an obvious reason that this is a silly question, but from what little I know of the two languages (enough to write a Hello World, not much else yet -- I'm on a learning curve tricycle!) it seems like Python code is easier to read. In a company with lots of office-application customization, this seems like a very important attribute. Granted, documentation can make perl (or any language) more reader-friendly, but I think if I had to read, maintain, update, etc. I would rather be using Python.

So ... how about that?
