Totally agree with you there, I decided to take on django head-on, Zope is literally dying here in "america" (Read: USA), which is a pity, and Zope3 is not making things easier for the few zopistas left in this part of the world, I see Django being what zope should've became after 2.7, embracing a more pythonic approach (yes Zope3, I know.. but I have one word: ZCML), ZERO (or almost nonexistent) black magic and the phenomenal database API (something that if you come from the old zope school, you'll be pretty reluctant to adopt) provided, along with the ton of (useful) middleware, I am just sad. no. wait.. happy.
I do agree that the templating engine is kinda sucky (but so they say about "our" choice of TAL), I guess it'll just be a matter of getting used to. Cheers.
