I am looking for web and application development frameworks - Webware is a possible candidate, partly due to being Python-based and partly that it seems to have a sensible approach and a structure.
I have used Zope and am in the process of replacing it, mainly due to its un-necessarily complicated and quirky architecture, poor organization and dire documentation - which is some of the worst I have ever had the displeasure to encounter. A main concern about a framework - or any software for that matter - is the reliability of the software. This can be indicated by the progress of bug resolution, overcoming weaknesses and other signs of product development. Although I am encourage by Webware's recent developments (WSGI application, web site re-organization), I am discouraged by the slow or apparently non-existent progress of bug fixes plus the time taken between releases (e.g. over one year since the last beta release). Please note that I appreciate it is often difficult for authors to continue to develop or support open-source - we all gotta make a living :-) , so I do not want to criticize in anyway: the effort which the Webware authors have exhibited should be applauded. Nonetheless, if I (or anyone) is going to commit themselves to a platform, framework, or whatever, then they need to know that if something doesn't work, it will get fixed sooner rather than later. So, after all that, what do I want to know? I would like to know what the development and general status of Webware is. Has it gone through a quiet time, but now effort being renewed? Or has it, in terms of serious development and bug fixes, stalled? If so, why (e.g. lack of developer support, time, etc.)? Any info or response - other than flames - would be greatly appreciated. cheers, chas Reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Sybase ASE Linux Express Edition - download now for FREE LinuxWorld Reader's Choice Award Winner for best database on Linux. http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_idU88&alloc_id065&op=click _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
