Agreed, but you are preaching to the choir.  :)

I am +100 all of what you say, but I think the issue is about getting more
Django developers on the TriZPUG list in the first place and, on a broader
scale, making it easier to realize the wealth of experience and support that
can be found in the Python community, and help Django projects do more in
terms of how their code can actually be "good Python" instead of "some app I
threw together in 5 minutes because Django is so easy to learn."

On that note I still do believe, to reiterate what Paul said, that something
with "Django" in the name is a Good Thing(tm).  If nothing more, as a
shepherd to bring folks into TriZPUG.

Cheers,
Tobias
