how hard it is to easy_install it, and then run quickstart ?
 

Django gives you an admin environment for free while TG doesn't have
such thing and I have no idea how to create it.

The toolbox (since 0.9) gives some of those features.

TG applys the pattern MVC while Django does it in a strange way.
Django doesn't use AJAX while TG uses Mochikit and JASON.

AJAX is not a  tool is a concept. so what you wanted to say is that TG uses JSON instead of XML for AJAX, and the reason for that is that JSON is better both in performance and simplicity.

Django is very compact while TG is assembled with many moduls to put
together.

that's exactly the goal of both frameworks, while Django aims to build a module for every need, TG goes out and takes the best module for certain task and incorpates it. Just two diferent ways of doing the same thing.

Someone of you could give me a good reason to use TG instead of Django?

I have 2 if you don't like what the framework gives for X task don't use it and incorporate your own, best example _javascript_ you can use anything that's outthere and TG won't complain, a little less is the template which can be added with a small plugin to create the entry point.

The second reason is that you don't have to go out and look at *all* the tools for a task someone in TG has already done that. which is what is happeing with SQLObject/SQLAlchemy, when TG was created SO was the best, right now SA is getting better and ones it's great TG will be at SA, and new people will know that SA is the best ORM in python :)

Thank you,
