Sounds good. I strongly prefer less restrictive licenses like this to GPL, which would be a problem for me in this case.
5. Project Description: Restify is a lightweight content management system that uses reStructuredText documents to generate static web pages for an entire website. It is written in Python, and does not require any software on the server.
My current code base caches but still has Python code running to access the cache. This should be changed to allow static directly servable files as an option, but in fact I would like to retain a layered approach where there can be a mix of dynamic and static content (even down to different elements on the same browser page).
I described the kind of tool that *I* want. If that isn't what everyone else wants, or what Stephen and Tim's code supports, just let me know. I just hope I'm not too far off in my description.
It's fine as a start, anyway, as I'm sure we'll evolve what we want this thing to be and after we figure out how/if to merge the various initial code bases.
I'll let everyone know when the project is approved by SF. In the mean time, anyone who wants developer access should send me their SourceForge user names.
Please add sdeibel when it's approved. Thanks! Stephan Deibel -- Wing IDE for Python Archaeopteryx Software, Inc Take Flight! www.wingide.com
