In that case, there are no substantial python applications.
Everbody knows that any conceivable project can be
implemented in python in a week or less.

Here's a better definition:  A substantial application is
a project that, if implemented in C++, java, or perl,
would be 75% finished in 24 programmer-months or
more.
