Thanks _you_ for taking the critiques as they were intented !-)

First, thanks for the critiques - I'm not surprised there are better ways to
write this as I'm just learning python.
Second, url mapping for me is trivial. Its a web app, not a web site. I would
be fairly happy with totally opaque urls ala seaside as long as I didn't have
to think about them.

Depends what you're doing, but if what you're doing fits into its
"chained views" convention, django-catalyst will also autogen relevant
urls for you -

Well, if you disagree strongly with the Zen of Python maybe using Python is
going to be a pain in the ass! :-D
Every language has it's own phylosofy and ways to work. If your way to look
at it is more "against", it comes awful. I know that. I HAVE TO use Grails
(BTW, convention over configuration)

Is writing URL patterns really that big of a time sink? Just off the
top of my head, I've probably spent more time fiddling with comment
balancing than working on URL patterns. If
c'mon! is regular expressions! if that bothers you, just do a regex that
woud take anything and through a smart view, define everything

Oh, I've already come to terms with that. So long as XCode makes indenting
easy I'm OK. :-)

Not sure what you mean? You mean something that looks through the code and

I don't see the point of that exactly. The dynamic dispatch I'm doing does the
same thing and I prefer dynamic dispatch to code generation (I abhor code
generation)

Django has several superior features to rails that drive me to use it. The

Todd,
If you are just trying to define a restful interface to your objects,
you might look at django-piston[1]
If you really want the Rails approach, you are going to be pretty
frustrated working with Django. The python equivalent of "convention
over configuration" is "explicit is better than imp

I think you've kind of missed my point as there's not a view that can render

This is the url conf for a typical rails app.
map.connect '', :controller => "public"
# Install the default route as the lowest priority.

I usually don't find myself writing too many redundant views, since
the built-in admin site does so much of that automatically. Then I
just build views specific to the site's public UI. I still find it
curious that you would find yourself recreating said urls. I run a
company database through th
It is mostly a waste of time and busy work.
I like the rails strategy of /controller/action/id
I'd like to define a similar one time couple rules in urls.py
Something like /application/view/id where view is the name of the function in
the views.py in that application.
