Actually... It took me 30 minutes to get my blog engine running, without the design. And, there's no need to "make" for plugins. A Django app *is* a plugin to the django framework itself, if you'd like to see it that way. I have a common repository on the python path with things I tend to use often, like typogrify, markdown, and feedparser. You can just load them from any other app. There would still be the problem of people wanting to "one-click-install" plugins and themes. But why would such a person even think about using a framework instead of wordpress? And I still think that there's absolutely no need to make a de-facto standard blog app in django. You gotta use what works best for you, man.
