I started the battle today. The "new guy" was trying to sell me on CodeIgnitor. I haven't looked at it, but it is PHP, so I really want to avoid it. The good thing is that all of his "friends" have been telling him to get into Python. I have been trying to convince him that PHP isn't cut out for background services and is mostly a front- end language. Python is much more geared towards hardcore data processing. Why write the system in two languages? I have been spending a lot of time looking at the Pyramid project: the next generation of the Pylons project. It looks powerful, but it seems to be a lot more complex than Django. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
