I have become an enthusiast of Open Source languages with PASE, such as Python, I would like an opinion if the new developments should continue with Python and leave RPG/COBOL a little aside, which I think I know very well.

Personally I think new development should be done with the best tool for the job. I don't favor simply switching to the "flavor of the month" particularly when new developments are often extensions of existing applications.
RPG has hung around for all these years for a reason - it is great at handling business data. That hasn't changed.
The mix of RPG, SQL, and OS is a powerful combination - why limit yourself?
