Thanks Gents,

You do all make sense to me. My dilemma really, is that im from a .NET
background where i write business logic in C#  and write my own stored
procs, etc...with the "cosmetic" design fully seperated from it all. so i
think id feel more confortable with a framework thatd provide a basic MVC
architecture and leave me to roll my own SQL etc, not one that will generate
half a project for me. ive taken another look at Cheetah and i think i like
it the most thus far.

My other issue is: has anybody run a python web app under lighttpd? and if
so, where can i get the Windows lighttpd build? the link to
kevinworthington.com on the official site is dead, and ive not had a
response from the lighttpd webmaster.

happy coding...

Shortash
