I seem to recall (((((mt))))) offering both Rails and Django out of the box.

Also, Google App Engine kind of fits the bill (with a little finesse).

Yes, and webfaction too. But these aren't django-only, like engineyard is for rails.

I think Rails has a special community that has a stronger concept of loyalty than the Django world. I wonder if a Django host might be a bit like Microsoft retail stores. The volume is there, but not the brand loyalty. (Note: I've never used either.)

It's not really true. Rails has it's controversies inside the community andmore attacks comming from outside.

Fortunatelly it's ecosystem grows fast and into the right direction. On posts like which language to learn -- Django or Rails -- one can realize Ruby community is well equipped with tutorials, screencasts, components, news, collaboration, hosting and deployment/tuning tools
