The nice thing is that each community (or at least core dev-teams) is super happy with its place. Django has always been positioned as having very clear boundaries: DVCS, webdesign and javascript toolkits are explicitly outside of their scope. Rails embraces the whole ecosystem.

What would be interesting would be a framework on top of Django that pulls in these external dependencies and creates something new.

Just another case of a Rails fan boy finding excuses to start a flame war.

Django, however successful it may be in web dev and within python webdev , there exists a larger py-webdev/python developer community which does not care how many rails books are being written and sold.

Python developers have seen successes and failures elsewhere in their community enough times not to go overboard with the hype.
