Think there is still a lack of communicating success on that scale. If
I think about serious IT magazines published in Germany ( e.g. "Object
Spectrum" ), there are tons of experience reports about all kinds of
enterprise systems, that were created and managed in Java/dotNET.

There might be a slight progress if you review some of the talks on the
next Europython conference:

But this is still internal from the fans of the language to other fans.
