The solutions you suggest *do not* in fact solve those problems, which are people problems, and perception problems.
Do you actually want web.py deployed at more shops? Shops that have formal operations centers, that care about packaging? I'm offering you a low-cost fix that gives a huge increase in professional perception of web.py, and I'm telling you about specific problems that are stopping it from being deployed more widely. I've contributed code to web.py. If I can't use it at work, because of things like then, it's unlikely I'll have much incentive to offer code. I am asking for a change in how web.py is developed, in the hope that it is for the betterment of web.py generally, and will lead to wider uptake, with dramatically little work on your part. Best of luck!
