november 2011 by pwang
David's goal was to make Scala a top tier language like Python. His post was about his frustration with the pace of this goal. "This Spring, I gave up that fantasy. I realized that Scala was never going to become as popular as Python."

Multicorn - Unified data access library
november 2011 by pwang
Multicorn is a PostgreSQL extension which goal is to make Foreign Data Wrapper development easy, by allowing the programmer to use the Python programming language.
Ok, but why should I care ?
Multicorn allows you to access any data source in your PostgreSQL database.
You can leverage the full power of SQL to query your data sources
Every tool you use for SQL can be reused with those datasources (think about an ORM, BI tool...)
