[python-advocacy] Proposal for Monthly podcast series

[Tennessee Leeuwenburg]

Hi Michael,

I would add Webware to the list, as it is rather different from the others.

Such a comparison would be great. I know of a comparison between Rails and
Django.

If people could email links to any other comparisons that they know of,
these could be assembled into a useful resource. I believe I have seen some
lists of comparisons on the web before, but maybe if people know of new
ones, that would be useful.
