Why aren't these more popular (Myghty & Pylons)?

I've been browsing what Python has to offer in the world of web
programming for past few weeks, while preparing to select something for
small, quick and dirty projects where my favorable solution, Zope3, is an
overkill.

There sure are handfull of solutions out there, but I didn't quite like
any of them, starting from those with more of a framework approach (TG,
Django, ...), and ending with really small ones, like Karrigell and Webpy.
Ofourse, I haven't tested each and everyone, but I've read a lot of docs,
and even more examples (Btw, those TG screencasts are really awesome for
introduction), and found nothing that 'fits my brain' :).

But, reading some old posts on c.l.py I found out about Myghty
(http://www.myghty.org), and by reading the docs and examples, I came to
like it. First of all, it's built with HTML::Mason as a role model, and
although I haven't worked with Mason first hand, I heard about quite a few
success stories. Besides that, the idea of components and MVC is also a
plus in my book, API is quite clear and the documentation is really
useful. It is hard to explain, but I fell in love at the first sight :).

There's only one thing bothering me, and that is it's lack of publicity.
There are only few posts on thig NG with some refference to Myghty, and
even less when it comes to Pylons (http://pylonshq.com/), framework built
on top of Myghy. Myghy project isn't that new to explain why people don't
know about it, so is something fundamentaly wrong with it?

Anyway, to make a long story short, those who haven't heard about it, be
sure to check it out, you just might like it, but I would really like to
hear from people (if there are such) using it in real world
applications...

The whims of mindshare are indeed mysterious.

is python more popular than coldfusion? I realsie that is a very general question as one thing does not directly relate to the other. My issue is that I am ditching coldfusion due to there being next to no work for it, and I am thinking of taking on python as a second language to java in the hope of improving my resume.

I broke down and wrote a dynamic global module index for the Python library reference manual last night using Myghty.

At any rate, it's available on a trial basis at http://staging.musi-cal.com/modindex/ The idea is that it fetches and caches...

Hi, I am making a javascript call to google maps to get the geocodes of an address. Ok, so its trivial to get the latitude/longitude, but now I want to pass that data via the Pylons MVC framework so that my controllers have access to them. I could get the lat/long by instead going through HTTP via a webservice call, but new problem comes up - how do I now hand off the c variables to the javascript function.

Hello, I don't want to be impolite, just in short: I am thinking about leaving RoR and coming back to Python. I've missed the last two years in Python, however I have been subscribed to this list and there are not too many e-mails about Pylons in my mailbox. On my Gentoo the latest Pylons ebuild has date "jul 2007" or something like last summer. It has testing keywords both for x86 and amd64. (No

Hi everyone. I was thinking about signing up with a web host that supports Pylons (among many other things) and one of the differences between the various plans is application memory for long-running processes. The plan I'd like to sign up for has 80MB. Does anyone know if this is enough for basic Pylons applications? Just in general, how exactly can I calculate how much memory a Pylons application (or any other type of application, for...
