Good questions.

Web2py has changed less in the last year than in the year before and most 
of the changes have been small improvements and strengthening security. In 
my view web2py is a very mature project and users do not want big changes 
at this point. We have some todo items including a more flexible grid, 
better CSS customization. I personally did not find much to learn from 
Django and Rails in the last few years instead I am much more interested in 
the async capabilities of Python 3.4, and in some javascript libraries like 
Angular, Ember, and Ractive (my favorite), by hypermedia APIs, and by 
Semantic-UI.

I think the future is a lighter web2py with a similar IDE but more 
client-side logic out of the box and more automatic. For example I have 
ported the web2py helper system (DIV, SPAN, etc.) to JS. I would like to 
move form generation also clients-side. I would like move away from the MVC 
and to a mini-MVC patter where an action is responsible for a single 
component (for example validation) and not for an entire page. Wherever we 
are going the DAL is staying!
