Hi,

Before we discuss about the roadmap, I would like to hear from all of you
about what are the things that you like, don't like and hate about web.py.
Please also add your wish list of features.

I hope that'll give us change to think and plan a better roadmap.

Let me start with myself.

GOOD

* The best part of web.py it its simplicity. There are not many layers of
abstractions and it is very easy to understand how things work behind the
scene.
* The db module
* simple URL dispatching

NOT SO GOOD
* The template module - i think using indentation to identify blocks was a
bad idea. I had trouble with it lot many times.

BAD

* There are not many third-party libraries to use with web.py. I would like
to see more such libraries.
* documentation - we need more documentation.

UGLY
* forms - the forms library is not as elegant as it should be. Declaring an
object and calling to to create a copy is an ugly hack.
* sessions - sessions got into web.py as part of google summer of code and
I was never happy with its quality. Some one tried to do some improvements,
but think it shouldn't have come to web.py at all.
* development & releases - I've been very bad at maintaining and handling
the releases in time. Hope I'll get better at it and expecting more people
to contribute.

WISH LIST
* Python 3 support
* can we do asyncio with web.py?

Anand
