Am I that wrong tho? I mean,... I see some of the unit tests and its very easy to get lost in the details. Wouldn't that be great if we could have few stand alone program with few parameters that teaches us the inner working of web2py from server to validator to scheduler to DAL...and the framework overall based on the most important modules that are backbone to the program? Then every time there is an error or any issues, we get much clear picture about what went wrong let alone that fact that it will help us develop and maintain. Any thoughts?
