Maybe, but not in this thread, so far, unless my news providers
is dropping messages.

(I'm sure there's a subtle point you're making, but it's too
subtle for my simple brain; forgive me.)

(And in case my point was unclear: the OP asked about something
which seemed like a very simple experimental project to get their
feet wet with Python.  Others seemed to be justifying their points
by shifting it towards major software engineering efforts.  I
understand their point, but just don't believe it applies in the
OP's case, unless I misinterpreted the OP's situation in which case
we'll probably hear back soon...)
