Be there! -Bill _______________________________________________ django - The Web framework for perfectionsists with deadlines. Django makes it easier to build better Web apps more quickly and with less code. Developed four years ago by a fast-moving online-news operation, Django was designed to handle two challenges: the intensive deadlines of a newsroom and the stringent requirements of the experienced Web developers who wrote it. It lets you build high-performing, elegant Web applications quickly. Django focuses on automating as much as possible and adhering to the DRY(*) principle. http://www.djangoproject.com/ ______ (*) DRY - "Don't Repeat Yourself" But what exactly counts as duplication? CloneAndModifyProgramming is generally cited as the chief culprit (see OnceAndOnlyOnce, etc.), but there is more to it than that. Whether in code, architecture, requirements documents, or user documentation, duplication of knowledge - not just text - is the real culprit. http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?DontRepeatYourself _______________________________________________ gnhlug-announce mailing list gnhlug-announce@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-announce/
