    Thanks for the writeup! Appreciate your perspective :) I'm trying to get up to speed with OOMVC frameworks, and although my company uses Django, it seems easier to get up to speed with Rails and then translate a lot of the patterns and concepts over to Django.

    I'm a seasoned developer but not overly familiar with Django or Rails and am always interested to hear what others think regarding a comparison so thanks for posting. At the risk of sounding pedantic, I'd point out that Guido is from Holland and, although widely spoken, English wouldn't have been his first language when he created Python :-)

      ...and Matz is from Japan. Guido speaks English very well and how well each of these guys speak English doesn't affect the languages very much. I'd go with Python personally since the syntax is cleaner and the code tends to be more performant. For example, RoR was too slow for HULU so they ended up re-coding lots of stuff in C.

      Guido has extensive background in mathematics that inspired the syntax and philosophy of python
