Hey Hey, no need to dis Php, or Drupal for that matter, it's actually a
mighty fine language for what it does. And they have been making it a lot
better(namespaces, closures and, possibly just for Pradeep, goto).
Nice to see conferences happening around python.

Hadn't noticed it was written in Drupal. Well, they might have an
excuse since they are focusing on "Scipy" rather than just Py!
I am quite annoyed by the FUD about plone - granted plone is a pain to
customise, but a Q&D CMS? All it needs is click click click - what on
earth is
this guy doing with buildout, restarting zope etc etc? Not that I would
expect
much from someone who is comfortable in drupal. SciPHP anyone?
Plone has the easiest setup story of all the CMSes. You don't even
need to have a database and a webserver for $deity's sake. Some how
installing and configuring a database, and a webserver is easier than
running an installer !
I think the key quote from the TFA is "Since
I had some experience with drupal, I suggested that we go with drupal,
since I had some experience with its working. I worked for a couple of
hours to set up a basic site on my local machine"
Yeah? really? what about downloading a windows installer or a mac
installer for plone and doing a click-click-click as KG suggested
and be done with it in minutes?
The biggest joke of all has to be the fact that all the features that
I see on their site, including events works out of the box on plone
without installing a single external plugin. And plone's event
features have lot more features than the half-assed calender i see on
that site.
PHP+MySQL is the BASIC of this age.
