Pylons evolved to something larger than a simple framework to become the Pylons Project, and Pylons 1 should be now known as the Pylons Framework. I think it's more confusing for current Pylons users than for new comers. Pyramid, as a successor of Pylons 1 (ie the Pylons Framework) is a core technology developed by the Pylons Project, an organization or a team of devoted developers.
In short we have: 1. A solid legacy web framework: Pylons Framework (ie Pylons 1) 2. An organization developing web technologies: The Pylons Project 3. A new core web framework successor of the Pylons Framework: Pyramid 4. Multiple projects related to Pyramid But to make things simple you also can refer to Pyramid as the Pyramid Framework On Nov 30, 12:56 pm, Gopalakrishnan S <[email protected]> wrote: > I have already read about "Pyramid" is a "Pylons Project" on Ben's > blog and his group discussion posting and hackers news.
