Vincent, you might find it helpful to contact Jerome Alet who I think works
at Faculté de Médecine de Nice
http://cortex.unice.fr/~jerome/
http://wwwmed.unice.fr/RepAccueil

He is a Zope user/developer for educational institution. My guess is he
might be familiar who else to contact in France, and maybe internationally.

Zope is a good access point for researching institutional uses of Python.
http://zope.org
for example poke into the listed Zope users at
http://www.zope.org/Resources/ZopePowered/
The Zope mailing list is incredibly responsive.so worth posting there also.
http://www.zope.org/Resources/MailingLists

And similarly Plone users, which is an excellent new website extension for
Zope. Plone is popular for example in Korea, where Python is also gaining
instutional recognition.
http://plone.org/

Most of the Zope adopters tend to be people who already use and love Python.
That's why I suggest it is a good institutional indicator.
