Maintenance nightmare.... E.g. I don't have problem to maintain projects in different languages ( now RoR, perl and YCP), but if I am maintaner and someone leave or move to another team and need to start maintaining new module which is in new language I spend some time to learn it and it is not good idea to have weak knowleadge of many languages. I think we should choose one language ( it is not important if it is python, ruby, perl whatever), but we should stay with it as then it is easy to learn just how module work and not need to know how language work.
I agree, I meant more the ability to reuse stuff in other languages, or to allow someone to use your infrastructure from another languages without much pain. -- Duncan Mac-Vicar P. - Novell® Making IT Work As One™ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org
