Glanced at the tutorial.  A flat tuple of (url, classname_with_regex,
url, classname_with_regex, ...)  for url mapping? Ugh, no thank you.  I
hate to judge code by it's cover (or whatever), but magic tuples are a
big red flag for me.  Goodness, it's not even a *nested* magic tuple...

And I am strongly opposed to using common words for package names,
especially when you know it's going to be released and there are
competing projects out there.

And I don't like ORMs. (Hi Ian!) ;)

On another note, has anyone ever used PSE? http://nick.borko.org/pse/
