Hello Jon,

unfortunately the documentation has been lagging. Recently we are putting a 
lot more efforts into py4web which, as you understood, is the natural 
successor of web2py. py4web is much cleaner and much faster. The Auth side 
is not quite as battle tested but we plan to release a new and improved 
Auth for py4web in a couple of weeks, maybe sooner. It is not quite true 
that py4web lacks the equivalent of web2py's grid. It is just different. 
py4web is designed for APIs and provides a mtable that generates grids 
client-side based on the APIs. There is a lot of new and better stuff in 
py4web which is undocumented but I will prioritize the py4web documentation.
