Hi,
I am announcing PythonOnWheels. (short PoW)
Projectname: PythonOnWheels
Motto: We are only on wheels but it feels like having wings ;)
A quick and easy to use generative Web framework for python.
STOP: I know what you are thinking: " What the world doen't need are more
lawyers and python web frameworks"
And you are right. But I am announcing this mostly to get feedback from
the community. Any feedback is welcome.
Some years ago I saw a screencast about ruby on rails and that really blew my
mind. I Searched something equivalant for python but found only micro or mega
frameworks.
So I think there is even some space for PoW. Besides the fun I had and have developing it ;)
The idea is to make the developer focus on his/her App instead of the framework.
List of Features (not complete)

I did not reinvent the wheel but rely on the brilliant and proven standards out there
so PoW (and you) will need:
webob (pip or easy_install)

Beaker (pip or easy_install)

nose (pip or easy_install)
So, that's all folks ;)
