What I see daily instead is the effort of one (or a very little number of people) to develop something in the language he choose and then , _after_ some code has been produced, the effort embraced by other people that join the project. Some near examples? gitk, gitweb, stgit, git itself especially for shell parts (why shell should be a better prototyping language then other prototyping languages? portability? easy to learn? performance? library support? syntax? probably no one of the above in general terms). I would say this thread, although very interesting from a learning point of view, it's a a little bit academic.
