How exactly would you know which large sites are using Python? The PHP sites tend to advertise their use of PHP by file extensions on every URL, but a lot of Python sites don't. I don't know how to tell how many hits a random site has, but there are certainly some big users out there. For example Viacom uses Zope for many of its CBS and UPN websites. LastMinute.com, who definitely hit your large site definition, were working with Zope as well although so far as I know nothing has yet reached their live site. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
