No, they aren't very specific at all. Both frameworks allow configuration at nearly every level. The cool, slick admin interface might not be so useful depending on your application, but everything else has uses in just about any field. I only have experience with TG and cherrypy, TG for me is almost like cherrypy (I'm not sure if it still does, I've been out of the loop, but it used to use cherrypy under the hood), but a bit nicer to work with, especially if you have any AJAX. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
