Massimo --

No apology needed.  You are the #1 advocate for web2py and it is only
understandable that you would try to rally support in the context of a
discussion thread.

If you have a problem, it is that you are doing more "push" marketing
than "pull" marketing.  Push marketing is when you try to get out the
word and tell people about a great new product.  You try to create a
market for the product by flooding news of it to every corner you can
reach.

Pull marketing is when you quietly work away on your product, making
it better and better but not really trying to get out the word.  What
happens is that others find out by word of mouth -- from blogs,
Reddit, Slashdot, and all other social sites.  Pull marketing takes
longer, but delivers a far more powerful response.  People stampede to
your product because they WANT it.  They sing its praises and you
don't need to.

But pull marketing is not without effort, too.  To make it work you
need to constantly refine your product -- you have no problem in this
area.  However, you also need to make your early users successful with
lots of help like this forum as well as really good up-to-date
documentation.  (You knew that was coming, didn't you!)

Warm regards,

Joe Barnhart
