While the fact that the "reviewers" were registered DjangoPeople does not mean much (heck, I am even registered there), it would be a pity that these people voted down web2py for their own agenda, I've personally seen more "negativeness" from django users towards web2py than the other way around, I honestly fail to see why is this.. for my part I continue "spreading the word" about web2py in my own circles without bashing any other framework, we're gaining momentum and that is what matters, carry on, web2pyers :)
