Saying you won't use doattend, because it's written in ruby is no
different from saying you won't use PayPal since they use C++, or
Google Checkout because it's in Java, or CCAvenues for using, I don't
know, PHP say.  Doattend will just handle payments. It's a paid
service that might be used, or not, depending on it's own merits not
on the language it happened to be implemented in.

I'm not saying anything for or against fossconf, the app used last
time, just pointing out that your argument isn't very strong.
Doattend could be used *with* fossconf, or with a blog, or with some
other python app.  It just handles payments.

I know the doattend people, but don't work with them ... blah blah disclaimer...
