Re: google app engine suggestion

thank you javier,

i am a .net and php developer, i can setup .net and php servers on windows, ubuntu.

i am new to django/python. i love python so giving it a try.

can you give any idea of setting up my own django server, i found hard time in setting up one. not able to choose between apache and nginx mod_wsgi, mod_python.

i never found a decent documentation on how to setup and run django on apache or nginx.

With Best

migration to 3.x is still experimental, it will be some time before
it's mandatory.

also, a significant part of Django deprecation policy is which
versions are available in widely used platforms. Not so long ago, 2.4
was still supported just because some still-supported RHEL version
uses it by default.

finally, i'm sure Google will make 3.x available before 2.7 is
hopelessly obsolete.  Remember that they employ some big-name Python
developers just for that (even someone with GvR initials....)

personally, i find much easier to manage my own server than to be
constantly distracted by the by-design limitations of the different
PaaS offerings.  But if you find one that you really like, and don't
mind the lock-in, go for it!
