I posted this on Python newsgroup just now, in response to Alex Martelli: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dec 25, 7:53 pm show options On December 15, Alex Martelli wrote:

This is the problem, I think, no, trend, no clear winner (other than Rails;-))) Python web frameworks, for the love of God, UNITE!!!! This will work, I think, if and only if the "Consolidating" framework, the one to be used to absorb the other(s) best aspects, makes immediate and up-front, highly visible concession(s) so as to clearly communicate a win-win scenario.
