Re: [Zope] [off topic] question?

So, I don't get it... Why is Java so popular, while Python seems to be the same and is born before Java...

Can somebody give me a easy explenation?

Well, there are a dozen of fine languages older than Java. What happened is that Java caught the attention of the big media because of the responsivity of web applets in HotJava, the first java-enabled web browser. Java was the first language to be "known" by Wall Street before it was known to programmers. The name of the language, "java", was aptly chosen, too. BB
