What you did with web.py looks interesting. I like the template processor :) I'm also glad to know about ToscaWidgets.
Thanks! ToscaWidgets is one of the components that was split off from the TurboGears project.
I'm curious though, about the ORM you use, because it seems to me that either of the well known ones (SQLObjects or SQLAlchemy) look fairly heavy. Are you using one of those?
I'm using SQLAlchemy with the declarative layer. I'll be posting a complete packaged .egg example of a wiki and blog working off the examples from the web.py site using the dispatch and template parsers, and SA. Being able to connect to virtually any database and the clean declarative style are major bonuses to me. (Testing on SQLite, production on MySQL, for example.)
I'll be moving the db.py module into its own package to get added to the 'web.extras' namespace, that way the (quite elegant) DB helpers and custom templating language can be available if you need them, but not present if you don't. From import this:
Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!
