14 I don't agree, many large projects are written with PHP, I'm sure you can find
15 many examples for it. LAMP skills are quite common (and I have to think about
16 others maintaining the code after me if needed), and I'm sure LAMP is/will be
17 installed on the servers -stats will be deployed on.

19 Anyway, there's nothing you can do with one lang which can be done with the
20 other for web devel (and PHP is designed for it). While python gives clear
21 advantage in the client side (portage), there's no such advantage on the
22 server side.

24 Those who want to follow the development, the modules are stored on gentoo's
25 cvs.
