Rather flippant given that someone has gone to some effort to set up a survey to help out Web2py and that the survey responses were careful. As I see it the real goal of Web2py is to become more popular than Django. I do not see this as healthy. Like it or not, for whatever reasons the Python community is interested in Django and not in Web2py, as evidenced through democratic votes of PyCon participants about what participants want to attend presentations about. Web2py says it is for the enterprise yet who can identify where the enterprise is in web2py that will ensure its long term future and suitability for those really unexciting and boring issues such as paid guaranteed support? The support base is tiny and lacks well known names. I did not complete the survey. I find the concern over popularity uncomfortable. I have never come anything of a comparable nature that gets so anguished about its 'destiny'. To me it is a bad sign and indicates a weakness. If the goal of Linux was to be more popular than Windows then Linux would be long dead. There is some irony related to issues I do not want to revive and never wanted raised, that Linux lost the PR battle with Windows not because of Linux but because of Apache. How dumb is that from those who obsessively hammered Windows and Windows users as dumb?
