Isn't this the same thing as TurboGears 1.x which came out six years ago? I remember it being a framework composed of best-of-breed libraries.

It looks nice but it's hard to trust a web framework with such a jumbled home page. I know it has absolutely nothing to do with the backend abilities of PoW but if you want people to make websites with your technology you should probably set the example with a really cool website.

Sorry to be negative, I am not putting down the framework.

Seems interesting. Has ways to go until production ready, but even so I think there's potential here. I'm not sure I dig the "wheels" branding because long term it can cause people to maybe needlessly view this in comparison to RoR, with this being a pure Python based architecture and not a straight port.
