Ahh, I missed that. I think it was just before I subscribed to the list,
and I skipped over the subject about perl and python.

Sure, it sounds more complete than what I have. You could also wait and
see what feedback this thread gathers.

On a different topic (and in response to Carl and your earlier
discussion), as a counter-weight to the desire to avoid dependencies
(which I agree with), I also think we should be careful about how many
embedded copies of code there are, from the point of keeping up with
security problems.  This is probably a bias I picked up from Debian.
