Hey Sean, you just described my recent experience as well. Python+Django is a refreshing cool breeze. Now if only more hosting companies would get with the program and explicitly support it.

I fell in python/django about two years ago…I started a custom project and looked if I could build it on an existing web cms like joomla, drupal, etc. ended up with the decision to use a framework (they were buzzing all over), and finally decided to learn a new language, so I settled on RoR. I struggled for over a month to grasp how I could get what I wanted done. A friend pointed out Django, so I decided to dedicate a weekend to exploring it (I had been itching to try python for a while). One weekend later I had caught up the work I had done in rails, and shot off on a productivity binge.

We recently started using Redmine for our SCM (source code management?) which is a RoR app. We needed some customizations, and I decided to dive in and do them. Shew but RoR makes Django/python look and feel easy.
