Remember, I'm a noob, I'm not trolling. When I posted "Python" I meant the Python web-developement world. In particular, python frameworks, like CherryPy, have requirements that are not realistic for most shared hosting plans. Maybe I'm wrong, but I often get the idea that those who develop python frameworks don't give a thought to the realities of shared hosting. They seem to think that everybody has complete control over the server. Things are very different in the PHP universe. To use codeignitor as an example, again. On the "why codeignitor" part of the welcome page you will find: --- CodeIgniter is right for you if... * You need broad compatibility with standard hosting accounts that run a variety of PHP versions and configurations. * You want a framework that requires nearly zero configuration. * You want a framework that does not require you to use the command line. --- I don't seem to see Python frameworks using those sorts of selling points. Posting as a noob, who is struggling to get django configured on dreamhost, I gotta tell 'ya: those selling points look awfully attractive. The point is: PHP framework makers are very considerate of the realities of shared hosting. Python framework makers don't seem to give it a thought. Just maybe, that's something that Python could learn from PHP. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
