But at least in most developers' perception, it is (not necessarily in the absolute sense, but perhaps relative to Django or Turbogears). Mind, it doesn't even need to be true, we're talking of perception here. Also, I'm not talking about only Python and/or Ruby developers here, I'm talking about developers in general, a huge bunch of which comes from Java/.NET background. I know many of them and a lot of them do know Rails. When you say Turbogears or Django, however, they go, "what?". Sadly, there are more Java guys who know about Ruby than Python, despite the fact that Python predates Ruby by quite a few years...
