Do we have any recommendation of programming language for scripts such as
WebKitTools/Scripts?
It seems new scripts are written by Python and Ruby code is very rare.

Is it reasonable to port a Ruby script to Python?
I tried to port PrettyPatch.rb to Python in
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43617 in order to remove Ruby
dependency for many developers and buildbots.  However bdash objected it.
