I'd be interested in knowing what you dislike about CherryPy, I've been using it quite a lot recently, and found it to be very transparent, and well documented - to the point I almost wonder why they felt the need for a new version! I'm prejudiced against Paste, partly because I don't really get what it is, and partly because the parts of Turbogears that seem to give me the most headaches (SQLObject and Formencode) have websites with the same templates as the Paste website :-) > > > > The internals to Pylons make more sense to me because it's based on > > > lighter weight stuff than CherryPy (paste and WSGI).

You've just led me to discover this in TurboGears. I've been complaining that interactive debugging of turbogears is too hard for ages, and I had no idea this existed.
