A heads up to the Rails folks.
There is a thread on comp.lang.python asking if there is an equivalent to Ruby on Rails for Python. Thread title is "Python analog of Ruby on Rails?"

Huh?
I just took a look hoping to find some interesting discussions, but there was only one response that said "check out subway", and the remain postings were about how "cool" someone's signature line was.
Did I miss something? (I was reading through Google Groups).

Possibly, possibly not. I thought it was interesting that some of them are interested in Rails and seem to want to reinvent the wheel.
I doubt they'll keep discussing the sig for much longer, may get more interesting then.

I believe a good (Pythonic) implementation of Python on Rails would be quite
a different beast to RoR, because the two languages and kind of based on
different philosophies. There's certainly room for an full end-to-end web
application (like Rails) in Python. Good luck to Subway and all the other
copycat projects.
Cheers,
Dave

Which makes me think of... is there a ruby equivalent of Twisted ?
It's an event-drivent network framework. I always wanted to know that

I'm new to all of this -- is there a mutual hostility between the Python and the Ruby community?

Yes. The Python community is too big to bother with the Ruby community. 
I personally can't stand Python, the language. But the community is
young and passionated.

This can help implementing something similar
A Rubyfied Twisted Matrix would be great.

Yes, there is Its heart, I think, is the difference of philosophy I
mentioned earlier - Ruby's TIMTOWTDI (stolen from Perl) and Python's There
Can Only Be One (Way To Do It). Add to that people who are just attached to
what they know, and people who have tried both and passionately prefer one
over the other...
I really didn't mean "copycat" in a negative way, though. Please imagine a
more neutral adjective if it looks that way
Cheers,

Hostility is probably too strong a word. "Healthy competition" is probably much closer. Python and Ruby are relatively similar languages (Python is more like Ruby than, say, Java is) and they're sort of jockeying for the same position in the market: Programmers and companies who are looking for somewhere else to go now that Perl appears to be at a terminal point.

what about spread and rb_spread? it's an event driven ultra fault tolerant
networking protocol used to build distributed systems.

Should there be one? Might there be some advantages?

definitely much better.
And I think ruby-the-language owes something to python.
OTOH I guess python as it is now is a result of some of the pressure coming from ruby (i.e. "hey, ruby is pure OO!" )
Cross pollination is a great thing, I hope the ruby and python (and tcl and perl and Io and whatever) communities can keep on taking good things from each other.
