I completely agree that votes should only count if you are putting work in. Don't think a vote thread would actually be useful, though - seems like the kind of thing where everyone would volunteer and then disappear. I would be willing to assist if there is any need for direct T-SQL work or questions. In all the websites and programs I write I do all the SQL by hand (ORM kind of scare me - when it looks too much like magic I get really, really suspicious) - so I would be particularly useless for ORM stuff. Casey, I found a branch of Django development that uses SqlAlchemy. http://code.google.com/p/django-sqlalchemy/ It may be possible for everyone to collaborate and get everything with the databases working with SqlAlchemy, then split and create the rest using their preferred framework. Might cause enough headaches to completely ruin the whole reason to use Django, though.
