In the post-production world as I know it (Nuke, etc.) The C++/Python
combination has never failed to be adequate to the innovation demanded
by film makers. In the image processing world the C++/Lua combination
has never failed to adapt to the innovation needed by photograph
tinkerers. My point was really that the customers have never found an
innovative need that the extant platforms couldn't provide. I felt this
was somewhat different to the Christensen argument. On the other hand, I
may have missed the point…
