"Working with a framework is like any relationship... you make sacrifices..
*the love you get back depends on what you put in*.." - hehe ... moving on
swiftly ...

Vis. the bears, I can only recommend bear spray, or a dictionary -
dependent on one's particular circumstances.

To address the queries at hand - coming from several languages and
platforms, I was asking the same questions a few years ago. I evaluated
other popular MVC frameworks and stuck with Django. Not a regret had to
date.

- Django "just works" for a large share of "general" uses. The admin app is
a boon for those not too keen on reinventing the wheel when it comes to
"must-have" admin site functionality
- Django documentation is the amongst the best of any framework docs I have
had to consult. It is updated frequently and is never lagging too far back
from the current framework release. I will refrain from mentioning the
names of certain alternatives in this regard
- the Django community is sizeable and very active
- Django plays well on an array of development platforms. Linux, Windows,
Mac? Behaviour is consistent. This would be attributable in no small part
to Python's own cross-platform usability.
- Python. I do appreciate that the right tool must be used for each job,
but I am also still waiting to see that tool which would outdo Python in
most problem domains, at least relating to developer productivity.
