Everybody should have the latest. This may change when/if we move to Python 3.0. This will not happen in 2009. > - There must be board of directors selected from the exiting members > to decide the > direction of web2py No. I am a dictator and I am paying for the hats at the PyCon conference.

I have suggested that we turn part of the group into an international registered association of consultants with board of directors, etc. scope would be broader than web2py and web2py should just be a tool in our toolbox.
