Will this be better than Python?

No. It is (was, actually) a research project, not a widely available general-purpose language, so python wins on most measures of being-something-ness, which I think is a pre-requite for being better.

Some of the ideas in it have already fed into c#, especially into LINQ. That was its job. Now, you can compare Python to C# 3.5 or later with LINQ, but that's a different kettle of subjectivity :P
