I'm glad he did.

I tried to offload some mod_perl appserver bottlenecks onto TurboGears
when it first came out ( they were on numeric crunching , not Perl's
specialty ).  That was a complete nightmare.  The specs shifted
nonstop, and the developer community was one of the least pleasant
groups I've ever had the misfortune of working with ( Kevin
excluded ).  I quickly found myself using a mixture of PHP and Twisted
instead.

When someone said "hey! there's a new Python framework that doesn't
force you into the author's coding conventions, or make you design
apps the way the authors do it" I checked it out... and fell in love.
