@Odagi
point well made. thanks for everyone for being so welcoming :0 I spent
today building my first Django local site,
ended up with 4 apps. taken me awhile to get my head around things i
ended up with....
registration
- handles my user signed
security
- login, logout
web
- flat pages etc
- rewards
- a simple api link to an existing platform in java
given this was my first time really playing with the framework, well
it conforms to what i'm use to in java and ColdFusion,
views are almost the same as CF MVC. at some point i will do a write
up on my blog http://www.glynjackson.org/blog/ (plug, plug)
so i have some of the basic stuff down with models and views, I'm sure
i will have lost of stupid questions in the coming months.
I go to some cons so why not add another one to my list (my wife will
kill me)!!!
again thanks :)
I'm pretty glad, that you found django helpful for you.
There is no stupid questions. There are only stupid answers

I'm hoping this is the right place to ask such questions, please
forgive me if not.
I'm making a real time investment in learning another server side
language. I have 10 years ColdFusion, 5 years PHP, JAVA. Having
never touched Python let alone the framework Django, for the past
4 weeks I have been testing Django out. Darn, Raspberry Pi started
me with my blog (http://www.glynjackson.org/blog/
<http://www.glynjackson.org/blog/>) I have to say its nice,
however my concerns are now to do with the community and not so
much with the framework itself.
No one likes to back a loser and every time I search for Django
community I'm faced with a host of negative posts. for example:
http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2777883
<http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2777883>
Unlike other languages I'm active in and still use, I'm also
finding it hard to find any user groups locally in the UK (I'm
based in Manchester, UK).
So from the community itself how alive is Django? Should I really
invest the time to learn? Does it have a real future and please be
honest.
other questions....
1) is this worth going? --- http://2013.djangocon.eu
2) who are the top blogs people within the Django community who
should I be following, blogs feed etc.
Sorry for the stupid questions, but and just want a new skillset
that I can use for many years to come. Django is really cool
