At the above site you explain:
"Why Another WebApp?
The short answer is that I couldn't really find another web application
system that I felt comfortable with. They were either too heavy-weight,
didn't work as I expected them or didn't fit my development model, were
not well enough documented, etc... "

Just out of interest, what didn't you like about Albatross (
http://www.object-craft.com.au/projects/albatross/ )? Superficially at
least, Albatross seems to look a lot like JotWEB, in its templating
syntax, underlying architecture and light weight. No criticism of your
decision to develop another Pythonic WebApp framework is intended - the
more the merrier - but as a user of Albatross I am genuinely interested
in what you thought isn't right with it.
