Django has grown significantly since version 0.95 with over 2000 commits from 250 contributors. It now supports Unicode and new forms for testing and databrowsing. Many new third party projects now use Django including over 100 projects, AOL.ca, Curse Gaming, FSF, HP/Tabblo, Pownce, and Scripps Newspapers. Django is capable of handling high traffic loads of over 500,000 page views per hour and is well suited for new websites and applications.

We had a pretty busy couple of
days… and managed to keep a
consistent 500,000+ page views
per hour… When you are thinking
about that new website or
application… think Python,
”
and think Django.
