I used web.py for a few years before switching over to mostly coding in Rails for the last few months.
Is this for real? Do people find the difference between the style of these micro-frameworks substantial? Maybe I've been out of Python-land for too long, but 70% of these look almost identical (raising exceptions for redirects, a combination of lists and naming conventions or decorators for routes/methods, etc.) and the other 30% look awful.
Furthermore, when all of the frameworks are basically the same, isn't a much more important question what scenario they were designed for, or what extra features they have, or performance, or how big a community they have? (Even where the author seems to have reasonable criteria, like WSGI, he doesn't seem able to look up that web.py is WSGI-based.) And seriously, does anyone care about Python 3 and/or PyPy support in 2011?
Another way of putting this: do the criteria that the author lists match anyone's criteria who is currently writing Python web applications in the real world?
