Poll: Pythonic startups: what web framework do you use?

As I see it, if we get enough traffic to be worried about scaling issues we'll deal with it then. Django isn't terribly designed and going in and hacking multi-db and sharding in should take less than a week from a competent developer.

Discussing this before starting a startup sort of feels like trying to figure out how to do salary for hundreds of employees before getting your first one.

I think it's worth discussing these things in depth. Choosing a web framework for your web company is a serious commitment, isn't it?

I agree it's worth discussing (especially if you're unsure about future malleability of the web framework to your needs), and I apologize if I was excessively curt.

We're running multiple databases, live, with the Django ORM. Confirming that it's not very hard.

Ah I knew there was the checkin, I wasn't aware it was currently useable. Thanks for the info, I will have to check it out.
