[Pythonmac-SIG] Using MachoPython with MySQL and Apache

[Dan Shafer]

Just to offer another perspective....

I looked closely at Webware and another app package or two along with 
Zope. I chose Zope because it was less bare-bones, more fully 
fleshed-out, had a much larger audience of users both beating it up 
and extending it, and seemed able to get me from concept to finished 
product much sooner.

I've never regretted it. I run a dozen or so Zope sites now and I 
would definitely not switch to a lighter-weight product like webware, 
which I am sure is quite good (I have a couple of colleagues who use 
it).
