Well you can just put your comments. No need to upvote. Not intentional.

You will never go wrong if you start your project with django(Python framework)...it has been so active in the recent years and promises to be the future because even the python language itself is so active.

Yup you are right. But python is a bit on the slower side in comparison to PHP and that is why the dilemma.

Any of these will do just fine - they all have active communities, good docs and have proven themselves again and again - choose what your team is most comfortable with/efficient in.

I think you shouldn't care so much about community, because in every case it is big enough.

I thing question is which stack (PHP/Ruby/Python) is the best for your project.
