One thing I really like about joomla is the 1600+ extensions. But, I don't need those kinds of security issues. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I highly recommend you ditch Joomla as soon as you can. joomla has a lot of security issues, and I've been trying to get my friend off of this POS for the longest time. Her web sites are constantly getting defaced... there are at least 3 Joomla exploits I know of out there. djangoproject.org turbogears.com plone.org Check these out. But get off of Joomla as soon as you can. I admit, Joomla is easy to use I admit, but very easy to vector into a root exploit. John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

The most advanced Python-based CMS so far is still Plone. But it's a monstruosity. If you want Python and easy integration, you'd probably be happier with Pylons. While far from finished, it's very promising, and less monolithic than Django. My 2 cents... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Yes, I know, but they are all ways to create a website. If I wanted a site which included galleries, forums, etc. and I didn't want to re- invent the wheel, I could: 1) Use joomla or drupal, and possible end up "fighting the framework" to get just what I want. 2) Cooble together a web-site with various scripts, either developed by others, or myself. I would like to work with django, and include some python stuff. But, the PHP environments seem to have a much richer assortment of pre- written scripts. If I want to include my own applications, I could develop those apps with a popular PHP MVC called "CakePHP" and include those into joomla or drupal. I don't know if there is anything like that with Python development. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

You're using Joomla, which is a CMS written in PHP. Python is a language, you should ask 'can I use Python instead of PHP'. There are various Python CMSes lying around, you already got the link from the Python wiki. Now, you should check if they offer the same level of functionality and support that Joomla offers - and it may or may not be the case; consider that Joomla and Mambo have been around since years, while Python cmses and web frameworks are relatively young. Finally, Django is a framework, not a CMS. It is used to create websites and may be used to actually create CMSes. Now the important part: if you're not a PHP programmer, you can still use Joomla. You just download it, follow the instructions, plug in any pre-packed addon, and use it. You could probably do the very same with some of the Python CMSes around. Django is different: you must be able to program Python in order to use it. Nothing works from the beginning, since it's not a CMS: you must code it. -- Alan Franzoni <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Togli .xyz dalla mia email per contattarmi.

Have you looked at Zope/Plone? It's not Django, but they're the de facto standards in the Python world for that sort of thing. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Yes, you can do this kind of thing with Python: http://wiki.python.org/moin/ContentManagementSystems > But, I would perfer to use django/python, if that would be at all > practical. Then you should be looking for a content management system (CMS) written using Django, although there are a number of other established open source solutions, particularly in the Zope universe, that are already widely deployed.

If I wanted to build a website with forums, news feeds, galleries, event calander, document managment, etc. I do so in Joomla easily. But, I would perfer to use django/python, if that would be at all practical. I suppose I could put python scripts into django, if those scripts exist. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
