Hi all,
I was looking for a web framework for Pipermail UI. I have decided to use Pylons. Anna and benste wanted to know the reasons for choosing pylons over Django (As benste is already using Django for mailman WebUI). So, I thought I should discuss it with all of you.
Andrew is working on converting Pipermail to use Storm/SQLite instead of pickles to save data. So, the framework needs to have support for Storm ORM. Django has its own ORM and Storm cannot be used with it natively (Though storm is said to have support <http://blogs.gnome.org/jamesh/2008/09/19/django-support-landed-in-storm/> for django, I could not find anything further to try/test Storm with Django). Pylons doesn't provide any ORM and I have tested a small application using Storm.
Please give your feedback.
Regards, Dushyant
