Use php. I am lead programmer/maintainer of big website with a lot of interactive stuff in user's backoffice and with a lot of interraction to our non-web apps. PHP is a crap, but programming for web in python is a pain in the ass. And php programmers are cheaper. Especialy avoid mod_python. IMHO

Re: Python Web Programming - looking for examples of solid high-traffic sites

I think the first question I would have is what kind of dynamic content are you talking about? Is this a web app kind of thing, or just a content pushing site? While Django might not be v1.0 yet, it seems very solid and stable, and perfect for quickly building powerful content based dynamic sites

Hello list, our team is going to rewrite our existing web-site, which has a lot of dynamic content and was quickly prototyped some time ago. Today, as we get better idea of what we need, we're going to re-write everything from scratch. Python is an obvious candidate for our team: everybody knows
