*you* might have, but the majority of django apps i've seen are much
more "step and repeat" and "write to django".  i'm not talking about
what you *can* do, but what most people do.  very few touch system
processes or non "django-" libraries.  the coding style is typically
very enforced , which is great... but when you see code from some
django apps, there's very little Django and a host of plugin/
configuration calls + database/form schemas.

a good example is the TastyPie library for API management.  So much
has been abstracted.  The bulk of the work is more akin to
"configuration" than programming.  (

)

I've sidetracked this conversation enough.

all of Chris's ideas are great.  "creating highly scalable web
applications with pyramid" is also buzzwordy.
