I didn't post to any PHP community when I left because (a) I wasn't  
an active member of any PHP mailing lists (b) I didn't really have  
anything to say about PHP that hasn't already been said a thousand  
times before so I didn't think it would be very useful to anyone. I  
reached a point with Django where I felt I couldn't finish my project  
so rather than just leaving silently, I thought maybe I could help  
out in some small way by explaining why. It certainly wasn't meant as  
an attack of any kind.

Point taken. I apologize if I came off sounding dramatic. I really  
didn't mean to but I was admittedly a little frustrated at the time.  
I guess that may have come through in my delivery.

A good framework? Are you kidding?! You guys are building up the  
*killer* framework to put all other frameworks to shame! Just because  
I pointed out a couple issues that I had trouble finding my way  
around doesn't mean I don't think Django totally rocks. It does! It's  
just that for my working style, I'll have to wait until a few things  
are "fixed" before I can use it effectively.

Anyway, that's all from me for now folks. Sincere best wishes to all  
and huge thanks to the Django devs. I can't wait to see where this  
framework is headed.

Cheers,
Sean
