Watch your mouth (Hey, I like the humor but I'm sure others on this
mailing list do lack it :).

Opensource is not a community driven by licenses but by actual
intellectual property and on the basis of this you are completely
correct.

No! We want a solution that provides no large dependencies like python.
The wrapper scripts are pretty trivial and do not need the capabilities
of python in any way. "Bashisms" just means your scripts are not
sh-compatible and use some of Bash's new features (like Bash positional
parameters, etc...). This is a trivial issue.
