This is not a programming term, nor is it in use outside the field of programming. It seems to be an appeal to the vanity of Kevin Altis, who used the term in an article. This page has been sitting in Wikipedia for some time, being indexed by Google, which accounts for a large portion of its ~1300 Google hits. --Yath 18:38, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete: First, it should be Agile (programming language), rather than a programming language called Agile. Second, since this article only covers its use with Python, we could make this a redirect and merge to Python (programming language). However, since it seems that this is a very unusual/uncommon term, this is the presentation of nearly first hand research and neologism. Geogre 19:15, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • I presume this is intended to relate somehow to Agile software development. No vote for now; if someone can make the connection clearer, I may be inclined to keep. -- Jmabel 06:50, Sep 13, 2004 (UTC)
    • There doesn't seem to be any relationship. Agile programming language was coined as a category in which to put Python, while Agile software development is a methodology. The proponents of Agile software development have not tied their ideology to any particular language. --Yath 08:15, 13 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Neologism found in a single article on a single weblog. — Gwalla | Talk 01:58, 14 Sep 2004 (UTC)
