I'm in a similar boat...using PHP CMS-es (SilverStripe, Concrete5), wanting to extend it, tweak it, but would prefer Python instead of PHP. btw, is there some cart/shop app for web2py? > This is acctually the most problematic aspect of web2py.

Now, I'm determined to move my site from PHP to Python and the dilemma is whether to use Django (for which I found some decent apps like Django-CMS + Zinnia blog + Django-Shop or Mezzanine CMS/blog + Cartridge shop) or web2Py which looks very nice, more simple (which I appreciate very much). Otoh, I'm confused reading that adoption of web2py is increasing, but end-user apps like kPax seems to ber quite old? Why is it so? I'm 'freelancer' in the sense that I need to work on our own (small company) site, private site, non-profit-org site, as well as some sites of relatives friends and wonder if there are decent {CMS, blog, ecommerce} apps in web2py world which can be easily tied together and used for small-medium-sized sites or web2py is mostly used for intranet apps or some other usages?
