quite well, however most of my use is far from "full stack" so
Depends on what "full stack" is meant to cover. I haven't found a
single full-fledged forum software framework for Python, but
plenty for PhP. So in the end "full stack" isn't really enough.
You still end up having to integrate with "foreign" systems.
Flask,
Bottle, Twisted and Tornado are my "go to" (*) Python frameworks
Ok, those are so lightweight that they are very close to being
libraries.
For "lightweight" problems, "full stack" frameworks are a
disaster.
Yeah, but I think they are a disaster because they don't follow
the times. :-) Lightweight do, well at least they are remade or
forked.
Well, I only know Go from Google App Engine. Browse the
hello-world tutorial and you'll see that the Python version is
more legible (?):
I treat GAE as an anti-pattern.
Hehe, but webapp2 + jinja2 isn't all that different from Flask
and Bottle (which also can run on GAE).
I am under the impression that Go for GAE is written by the Go
Team? So it shouldn't be an anti-pattern… (?)

You better ask the dining philosophers.
