I really don't think the learning curve will be a problem. We learned Django while using it for an app, and the app was completed and delivered within a week (total 8 man/day). Granted, it was a dead simple app, but it would have take as much time doing it in PHP. The last one we did was not trivial, and was ready to deliver in 2 weeks - one week before schedule. This very first release is still running, and we didn't have a single bug report. Not to say that Django is a silver-bullet, but it's actually the best tool we found for sql-based web apps so far. > So as of now we are looking at using FreeBSD, MySQL, and some form of > Python that will allow us to achieve great performance serving > 30million page loads / month. FWIW, when it comes to web apps, and given a reasonnably well designe/implemented app, "performance" is more a matter of tuning/hardware/etc than anything else. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
