Hi All,<div><br></div><div>Heading for the summit in Montevideo and since the last language I programmed in was Pascal, thought I should get up to speed on what they are using now... at least a little bit. So, I downloaded a free copy of "Python For Dummies" and started reading. Surprise! Reading the history of Python, it seems it isn't Linux! (I told you this was really dumb). </div>
<div><br></div><div>I tried to find a relationship on wikipedia... no luck. So my question is ... exactly what language should I check out? What is being used to develop Sugar? Help! Time is short.</div><div><br></div><font color="#888888"><div>
