Re: Keg - A python web framework

I've been working on a python web framework which I think might be of
interest to you.
Details may be found at http://code.google.com/p/keg/wiki/Concept.
All suggestions or comments will be greatly appreciated.
I fail to see what the advantages of your framework are over django or
turbogears. The description you give on the above url doesn't really
help as all the goals you state for your project are solved by both
django and turbogears.

I wouldn't want to be too discouraging but it seems you are led by the
NIH principle which is not a really useful one in the open source
world. You can expect exactly 0 users and no appreciation for your
efforts which will/can lead to frustration and bad health.
Contributing to an already existing and mature framework like django
and turbogears can/will be on the other hand rewarding.

Cheers,
Daniel

I'd need to see a couple walkthroughs to be interested. Suggested
titles: "Easy things made easy" and "Hard things made possible". Links
to current sites using the platform also helps.

Is it really so bad to have no users and not becoming a "rock star
programmer" but rather being a "poor poet programmer" (PPP) instead?

The goal I would like for your webapp project is:

"Do in Python what 'Apache Cocoon' does in Java"

There is already a python cocoon project, in hibernation.
Perhaps you could join it and wake it up!

I am doing some research for a Python framework to build web applications. I have discarted Zope because from what I've read, the learning curve is too steep, and it takes more time to build applications in general with Zope. I have kept the following: - PyWork - http://pywork.sourceforge.net (Not sure if it's mature) - Django - http://www.djangoproject.com (Looks interesting) - CherryPy - http://www.cherrypy.org (Unsure)

Is this correct does anyone know if there is something I've missed out? 2. Does python _need_ the...

Someone asked me to write a brief essay regarding the value-add proposition for Python in the Fortran community. Slightly modified to remove a few climatology-related specifics, here it is. I would welcome comments and corrections, and would be happy to contribute some version of this to the Python website if it is of interest. ===

Hi fellow python enthusiasts. Having recently acquired a MacBook Pro (Intel Core 2 Duo) which comes with python2.5, I have been installing some modules that I need (PIL, psycopg2, PyXML ...).

It does not appear to be a problem when running scripts from the shell (as python seems to run as a 32 bits problems), but it is a...
