LoCo tools, development

[NICK VERBECK]

One of the projects I am heading up is a web framework for LoCo's
powered on Django. It has been slow moving as I haven't had the time
as of late to get the core up but a lot of ideas have been floating
about and a few have been put into the Blueprints on Launchpad and the
wiki.

The only thing I've been contemplating is weather to keep with Django
or move to Pylons or Turbogears 2. As both support the WSGI standard,
and I have yet to hear anything from Django as to them moving to the
standard. WSGI allows you to switch out any component of you base
framework with another with out much work. i.e. If you don't like SQL
Alchamy as your ORM then change it out with something else. This may
be something I put up in front of the group to debate on.

You can find the project here https://edge.launchpad.net/loco-django
