About Left Outer Joins: Would the use of a custom Q object in Django to perform a LEFT OUTER JOIN require programming in raw SQL or can it be done programming with the ORM API only? In the first case it does not count as explained in the document. In the second case I will be happy to amend the slides.
About ByteCode compilation: Although I agree with your observation below you are comparing apples with oranges. It is true that you can bytecode compile any python application but what about templates for example? With one click, web2py collapses the template hierarchy for each page into a single py file, then bytecode compiles all models, controllers and templates and zips everything into a single plug-in package. The main purposes of this are ease of deplyment and speed since there is no more template parsing at runtime. The web2py binary distribution is compiled with py2exe (for widnows) and py2app (for Mac). That is what cx_freeze can be compared with. Anyway, if you post an example of a Django bytecode compiled application and documentation on how to create and deploy it, I will amend my document to reflect that. If a feature is not tested and not documented it does not count. Let me say once again: I like Django and I took inspiration from it. Great work guys!
