Just to fill in on the good-natured comaraderie here...
Once I saw the "porting" note here, I posted a twitter note that
"we looked, and wanted to port... but web2py already has all this...."
(friendly jab ;-)...
It only took about 5 minutes after posting for the Pinax team to find it and
wail out "Hey - look at what someone posted about web2py" ---- big, long
round of laughing...
Someone did complain that "web2py has a way to inject code thru the admin
interface..." it was a short lived complaint --- localhost only access was
pointed out, as well as "admin is an app - you don't have to deploy it if
you're concerned." This is not obvious, and did serve as an answer, but
Doug also pointed out that Zope has had a web admin interface for years, and
no one has complained about... :-)
Sprinting is great fun... if you haven't, make some time for it at your
next pycon!
Time to go home. I can't wait for next year's PyCon.
