wow. that post is terribly incorrect. get your facts straight. "Django, PHP, Rails, Tomcat, Jboss" ? as far as I know, only one of those is an application server (Tomcat?) Though I dont know what JBoss is, so maybe it is too. PHP is a Language, and django and rails are frameworks.

also, your comment about only needing server-side code if you have a high-volume site? wtf is that supposed to mean? static HTML would survive a slashdotting a lot better than any dynamic site ever could.

What are you doing here?
