I'm working on a project for which Zope seems appropriate. However, an outside consultant for our client claims that the major problem with Zope is that it requires Python, and Python is much less stable than something like Perl.
Yeah, and blue people are dumber than green people and orange people are communists. Without even a whim of data (and there is none) this is just straight up ignorance.
I haven't used Zope or Python enough to have counterarguments to this comment.
The perfect counter argument is. "Prove it." If this person asks *you* to prove it, show them the Lawrence Livermore National Labs, the mems-exchange (all multi-million $+ scientific establishments), Jon Udell articles, etc etc. There is a mountain of evidence on your side and nothing on his/hers.
I don't know specifically what stability issues this person may be referring to, but I would like to ask for feedback on this persons comment.
Thanks.
