Python only forms part of rubrik of technology stack that everyone of
us uses. Linux, Windows, S60, MacOSX mostly form the underlying
operating system. Bunch of libraries form another bit important piece.
C/Java/.net form another piece of the puzzle by providing module
interfaces. There are frameworks and interfaces. All these things do
not exist in isolated forms. They are in constant flux. Sometimes even
competing languages like ruby become critical to solutions being
built. In this context, "only python" initiative presents an unclear
if not inappropriate picture to students. Pushing them to think of
technology for technologies sake instead of technology for finding
solutions. This will only happen if other pieces also become part of
knowledge base being imparted to the someone willing to learn.
