NP, I noticed but decided not to comment, particularly since I roughly agree with the spirit of DH's comment. Graham and Norvig, among others, have often argued that there are parallels between Lisp and Python; the proliferation of frameworks for a given task, I think, is one of them. Good thing we have more things "nailed down" in the standard library... but even then, e.g. with asyncore vs Twisted, there's no holding down a different [here, better] implementation of similar ideas from emerging as a third-party framework, anyway.
