I appreciate this link. I gave up reddit for lent since it's mostly just a way to waste time for me. I was comfortable doing it since I was confident that anything really good would get linked on HN, too. I'm pleased to see that a worthwhile discussion thread, even on a relatively small subreddit, made it here.

Yes, scouring the subreddits can turn up useful discussions like these. I think Django needs more of this exposure from major sites that have used them just to show what is possible with the framework. If one looks at frameworks generally and maps popular website to a framework(e.g. Php to Facebook, Java to Amazon, Ruby to Twitter) they have an idea of what can be done with that tool and Django sure needs a lot more exposure like this.
