Well, it was speculation anyway.. Physics is fortunately one of these sciences where failed experiment can considered to be a total success :)

My approach is basically the same: Long-uppercased names for anything global, settings or security-related (ie COOKIE_NAME, SECRET_HASH) For dummy loop variables: i, j, k For everything else I use common sense.

Werkzeug - the anti-framework. It is more like a library and that's good as it allows you do things the way you like... http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/
