Yep.  Sorry, that wasn't meant to sound like criticism ... while it's never
appealed to me personally, obviously Django has its uses or people wouldn't
use it.   I was just responding to Stephen's comment about the
perceived complexity of setting up MM3.  Not having to install and
configure another application would be, objectively, simpler.

I already have too many full time jobs, so I'm not in a position to
volunteer to take on another. :)
