I think webpy's advantage above framworks like django is, that it is not a framework. You can write a website in your own style. Also Web.py enables you to write really, really fast pages, because python does not need to load tons of unused stuff on a request. So keep the stuff it has working and other stuff (like forms, auth, etc. ) should be in another library (e.g. webpy-addons)
