That was the impression I had - that many of the applications ported to Sailfish OS so far were written in Python. Of course not one single developer will re-write everything from scratch in C++.

Jolla must be aware of this, right? It just cannot be that they ask people to port applications without telling them that whatever runs in the Alpha SDK won't run on the final product. I really hope they find a way around this issue.
