But we've seen widely adopted web frameworks in the Python world. Zope was the first such case (starting more than 10 years ago), and the last few years it's been Django. That the Python world can support a rich ecosystem of web frameworks in addition to this, and the WSGI standard for interoperability as well, might indicate the web framework situation is more healthy than it is in the Ruby world. I don't know this. I don't even know whether I care much. But you were just throwing out the statement so casually I felt I had to challenge it. :) Regards, Martijn _______________________________________________ Python-nl mailing list Python-nl@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-nl
