Mike hit it exactly on the head, I couldn't have said it better myself. :) The components of Pylons are rather small, but I definitely don't want people to feel there is stagnation. Phil Jenvey has been very busy lately getting our Jython support up to snuff, and Pylons is now an option under Glassfish, soon to be in the main branch: http://blogs.sun.com/Jacobkessler/entry/construct_additional_pylons I have some improvements and minor re-factoring planned for Routes, to make it easier to add routes under a 'prefix', which will pave the way in the future for better ways to plug-in sub-apps, as well as make it easier to write up nested resources. Pylons is still awaiting some re- factoring and fix-ups to its @validate decorator, and the beaker_cache needs to be updated, and I'd love to get a template in with some better Babel setup. The list isn't all that large at the moment, but there's definitely more on the plate for Pylons which will bring us out to Pylons 1.1, 1.2, etc. I'd really hate for people to feel that Pylons is 'finished', it isn't, there's definitely more coming.
