Mine is not a respectable comparison of Web frameworks, it is NOT intended to be so. It is just a set of notes I kept for myself and that may be or may be not of interest to others. > When he said that he didn't want anything complex neither anything that used > a templating system, I thought this had already excluded a lot of > frameworks, including TG and Django. This is clearly not true, since I could use these frameworks without using their templates if I wanted. It would be very stupid to dismiss an entire framework only because I dislike its templates. > > Zope is also missing, but I'm not sure Zope qualifies so much as > > a framework, but as an answer to the question "If Emacs were a > > Python web environment, what would it look like?" > > He already had dislikings with Plone that weren't clear, maybe a lot of > those are Zope related... > > I agree, though, that more time could be spent explaining "why" things were > discarded / ignored. Look, there are already tons of pages on the net ranting against Zope, my complaints are quite common and I have no interest in repeating what has been already said. For instance, if you Google a bit you should find the rants of the Quixote people against Zope. I share their position. I did not talk about TG because I see it as being very close to Pylons and everybody is saying they will be unified in the near future, so it would be a waste of effort to discuss TG per se.
