I am happy Django Team has released version 1.0 of its python web framework. It was planned for 21th of September, but they speed up things :) We can read on Django web site:
Developed and used over two years by a fast-moving online-news operation, Django was designed to handle two challenges: the intensive deadlines of a newsroom and the stringent requirements of the experienced Web developers who wrote it. It lets you build high-performing, elegant Web applications quickly.
In my own opinion django is too much “DRY”, and sometimes simpler solutions was avoided by them because considered “dirty”. Anyway, I have followed Django from 2006, and I suggest you to give it a try.Django focuses on automating as much as possible and adhering to the DRY principle.

Zip64 extensions was disabled聽 because the default zip and unzip commands on Unix (the InfoZIP utilities) don’t support these extensions, as stated in the Python documentation.

The Network Computer was a bad idea born in the middle of the ‘90, and ended up to be completly wrong. Anyway, the current software tecnologhy (like AJAX, Google Gears, the psedo-new-ms-windows os called midori) can be helpuful to sketch a new idea of operating system.
The network computer fails because it pretends to store all information (program, user data) on the server. Worst, it pretends a fee for application usage. But users preferred a buy-one model, because they didn’t like the renting model
