Neither true nor false. A CMS *is* a web application. So this question 
doesn't make any sense.

Now it's true that Django was born mostly from CMS applications, and 
that it showed up in early versions. But the framework did evolved quite 
a lot since. FWIW, I did use it for a couple applications that have 
*nothing* todo with content management, and it was in the early versions !-)

Yes.
