As long as you have the proper interfaces, it makes not a whit what the client and server are written in. All you're doing is sending binary data between two systems. Each end just needs to be able to interpret that data in the same way.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

C only, in fact. Python is just used for some external utilities.
