Like building Trac 0.13 completely on top of Django? :~)

focus on features more than technology :-)


Well, I was talking about a new idea to improve Genshi performance...

Rewriting Trac on top of Django is a *very* different topic. While I also would like to be able to focus on Trac features rather than on the supporting technology, I have the feeling that doing a switch to Django would do the exact opposite, make us focus again on the technology (and eventually be limited by the constraints imposed upon us by the framework) rather than on our features... We now have a base on which we can build on, and if there wouldn't have been the problems related to Genshi maintenance, I would even have been willing to close the eyes a bit longer on the performance side and not have /any/ change in the infrastructure for the next versions (besides a switch to Python 2.5, but now it's me who's digressing ;-) ).

And there's already Basie, for those interested by a Trac-like system on top of Django (http://basieproject.org/).
