title: Selenium 1 vs 2
body: <p>I am starting up a test suite for an internal JavaScript UI library for the place I work.</p>
  
  <p>I have written about 10 Selenium 1 test cases or so in Python, for exploratory purposes, and so far it's gone well. I wrote the tests in Python and am using RC to run the tests in IE7,8,FF and Safari on the Mac so far so good.</p>
  
  <p>I know Selenium2 is in alpha but read somewhere that it's production ready, whatever that means. </p>
  
  <p>1) Since I am just starting out writing this suite, should I be using the webdriver API and Sel2, or is that not ready for prime time?
  2) Can I use Sel2 with RC yet? It's unclear to me from Selenium's website if that is possible.</p>
  
  <p>3) Anyone have experience with the Python driver for selenium 2? Or should I just write tests in Java?</p>
