Python is great for business automation, you can make really decent SSH SFPT/FTP/FTPS servers and client scripts, any kind of text processing etc.
It's not good for GUI development at all though, not sure why anyone would write a GUI in Python that requires Python itself, some GUI framwork like Wxwindows or whatever it's called now or QT, when you can make super kick ass GUI apps with Lazarus with zero dependencies on Windows and minor ones on Linux (QT or GTK).
One thing Python has is a really good SSH library called Paramiko, Lazarus and even Delphi have no good open source SSH/SFTP client and server library.
The best one is from Devart (securebridge) it's not super expensive, but when you need to automate some SFTP upload it's super easy with Python and paramiko.
I like the name Lazarus, but it might be holding things back for adoption in corporate environments, maybe it's time for a new catchy name as it's already been raised from the dead :-)
There used to be lots of great Delphi Developers and I don't really see many of the old names here on the forums, one I do see a lot is Remy Lebeau.
Maybe we should look at getting more of those great Delphi people involved in the project and all the Delphi component developers to take a look, and speaking of that one thing that would be great is the ability to have packages like Delphi has, i.e. the bpl concept was pretty good.
