We could discuss what lightweight means, I guess, but IMO there is a
light-weight, pure-Python, ready-to-use Python web app framework,
called Medusa.  No other installs necessary -- you don't have to get
some database running unless you really want to.  Works remarkably
well; I've written a few app servers in it already.  Perhaps your
buddy is actually switching for some other reason.
