web.py is much simpler than Django. However Django's ORM is still far easier to work with, IMO than web.py's. I don't think it's a fair statement to say that adding a single Django-esque feature constitutes a path down the slippery slope of full blown Django-transformation.
I'm jw, how do you database with web.py? Sqlobject? Alchemy? the built in db wrapper?
