This is strange, because from the point of view of design, is good to have orthogonality (non overlapping building blocks to define "spaces"), but orthogonality must live inside the specific (layer of the) project, outside it is good to have diversity and redundancy. In the case of Django, thanks good, is not the only solution out there and we have alternatives like Web2py. The question here is what is common in all this diversity?

I would agree that other ones are also educative ones, so we have education + entertainment = edutainment purposes ;-) Cheers, Offray --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
