Awesome guys, I still can't believe..hheheh I just mention that to a django guys and he called web2py a mini-framework and django is more feature for big apps. Do you agree with that? I am not a Django guy so I don't know but native orm,scalfolding,migrations,admin, this community...just amazing, I'm just wondering to do big e-commerce sites like www.taget.com or www.bestbuy.comisn't web2py enough, or does it need more maturity? Thanks.
