Charl, I think Alans site is built with Python/Django (Alan?) -
http://withtank.com Should be one of the largest SA developed sites using django...Alan would be interested to in hearing what your experiences are i read a post on your blog that initially tank was developed using PHP but you guys moved it to Django....
Charl: have you checked out pygowave -
http://code.google.com/p/pygowave-server/, A python-django based (rudimentary) wave server, can be used to test/develop widgets etc. I have
mywave.co.za if anyone is interested in playing around could set up a server.
