I pretty much agree with all of the points raised here about Django, and I've been using it professionally for almost 3 years. The core development team is incredibly hostile to improvements that don't fit some fluffy definition of where they see Django going, to the point where some of the best coders I know are incredibly discouraged from contributing patches or improvements, and just release their stuff on GitHub instead. That's the wrong way for an open source project to be, in my opinion.
- jacobian 16y agoI'm really sorry that you found us to be hostile, and I apologize for any part that I played in that. I hope you believe that hostility isn't at all our intent -- in fact, I try very hard to be open to criticism -- so if you experienced hostility that's a failure. If you can, could you point to any specific moments -- mailing list threads, blog posts, responses on HN, IRC conversions, whatever -- that you felt to be hostile? I want to learn from my/our mistakes. Please feel free to post 'em here, or if you don't feel comfortable doing private email (jacob@jacobian.org) is fine, too.
