Hi Adam, That may be true -- for you. Web2py should target the market sector that it wants and try to appeal to that sector.
Should web2py target an enterprise developer who has already chosen his software strategy and often has huge investments in existing vertical market systems and sometimes hasn't even heard of Python (yes, really!!)? For each one of those, there are a hundred if not a thousand small developers who really need a simple, all-in-one framework to make themselves productive. I am in the second camp and know there are so many others like me. Whenever I see the word 'enterprise' I end up dreaming about an encapsulated, inheriting, object-orientated armageddon and wake up screaming. But that's just me :) -D On Mar 21, 1:23 pm, AdamF <kyu...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I've read all the discussion about the tagline... and unfortunately I cannot > agree with most of the votes.
