What I didn't like about Pylons is that embeds the assumption that
you're using threads. I don't like threads, and this framework uses
multiple processes instead. One reason for this is explained very well
here:

http://poshmodule.sourceforge.net/posh/html/node1.html

I also prefer it for security reasons (having multiple servers each
running as a different user, in a different chroot). 

I also like Django style regular-expression URL mapping. But it
does not have a reverse function or mapping. My framework uses Django
style mapping to cleanly map URL paths to callables, and can also go in
reverse (provide the callable and get the URL that will get to it). 

I also don't like templates because it's difficult to guarantee
standards compliance. This framework allows you to construct pages
using pure Python code. The result is guaranteed to comply with the
selected DTD (XML bases: eg. XHTML or WML), or else fail.
