Hi, let me add my own view, and this is not a direct answer to Ian but more to the whole thread.
I personally got frustrated about the way tickets are handled. And sure, Adrian is currently a very scarce and important resource. There's written enough about that and I don't want to deepen it again. The point is, it does *not* put me off. I like Django, perhaps I rather contribute more tiny stuff of which I feel that it will get integrated, and I have my own patchset for Django. So what? It works fine for me. Why should I turn to a different framework when I like the concept and code (and the docs!), only because the tickets queue up? That's not important. To give an example of what I consider important: Nested forms are hard. This really counts and might make someone turn to a framework that supports it better (if there is ...) And I really, really, really wouldn't think Django core developers were arrogant or even unfriendly. The Django mailing lists are the friendliest ones I have encountered in open source. In my eye, especially the core developers do a great job to answer even righteous trivial, stupid or offensive questions in a sensible way. Perhaps you mistake one thing. Leading such a project, you will always need to make your own decisions, and you won't follow all the other views. Sometimes your decisions will unavoidably turn out to be wrong, but it's all the way better than a wild patchwork of different attitudes, styles and architectures in the code.
