However, as Richard said in some posts below, I'm not a geek in the sense to write everything from the scratch, but would prefer working with higher-level components (like add-ons in Concrete5 parlance) in order to build web sites. Of course, by taking advantage of Web2py and diving into writing plugins, one may evolve into geek or not, but, at least, there is space to contribute to web2py's ecosystem and make it more widely adopted by not so savvy users. > Actually I would like that be part of the book 4th ed and that is > causing some delays.

It sounds as nice master-plan. I'd like to contribute, but I'm afraid if web2py noob can be competent enough to "separate the wheat from the chaff". Hopefully, more experienced web2py users can jump in and help to organize web2py site on a higher or component-level.
