OK. Someone from Y! is responding now...

To put the matter straight, Lokesh works in TA at Y! and
he had asked my help to post an opening in the list. I mentioned
that this is a Python list, but scripting languages like Perl, Python
etc do have a lot of similarities  (Ask me, I am a Python coder at
heart but right now my bread is coming through Perl here).  A lot
of the skills at a high level are quite similar whether finally you
end up coding in Python, Perl or PHP.

My thinking in this was similar to Senthil's, I didn't expect this to
be an emotional issue here.

HTH.
