And for very good reason. Python is an excellent scripting language
that is suitable for a _wide_ range of scripting tasks.

In fact, if VSI had to choose one only, I would have said that Python,
instead of Perl, should have been the one that's part of the base
installation. (Although it would be better to have both of them as
part of the base installation.)
