Note that "no Ajax support" is misleading. Of course you can use Ajax
with Django, just as you can use it with *any* Web framework. That's
because Ajax is a browser-side technology (JavaScript), not a
server-side technology (Python). Django is just as capable of producing
JavaScript as it is of producing (X)HTML or whatever else.

Hope that clears things up!
