Javascript and wsgi
Recently I've been looking at the jQuery javascript framework. It looks fairly nice, although I suspect I'd get more usefulness from it if I knew more javascript. On the other hand, the documentation for jQuery is nowhere near as useful or usable as the python documentation. And my desire to read the javascript book I have within arms reach tends to wane considerably within a minute of opening it for some reason. Perhaps I'm spoiled by my exposure to python.
Also, I've been looking at the pylons WSGI framework. My initial impression of it is not very favourable; this is partly due to the ubuntu packages not being entirely up-to-date (the pastescript package wasn't compatible with python2.6, which ubuntu has moved to), partly due to all the deprecation warnings, and partly due to the default example being wrong in a manner that was extremely annoying to debug.
That being said, I think I'll see if I can create something usable in it and find out if it's any less painful once I'm past the teething problems.
