Python web frameworks vs Java web frameworks (how is web development in Python done?)
hi try bottle python framework (bottle.paws.de / bottlepy.org) its really nice to use blistering fast and gets out of your way + the best thing about it is that its one single file to import, i recently migrated from PHP and i have to tell you am so ... loving it!
I am thinking in starting a personal pet web project to experiment with different things and extend my knowledge.
I use Java a lot at work (for web applications :D) and was thinking in making my own in Python since I kinda like this language but never passed the simple scripts stages. 
I want to  step up a gear regarding Python (using 2.6.5) and don't know what to expect or what framework to choose from: Django, Pylons, web2py etc.
I also don't know how much these frameworks will offer me and how much will I have to write from scratch. 
I could use a comparison with Java if somebody can provide me with. I'm thinking at filter functionalities such as sitemesh, custom tags like JSTL; In Python, can I write clean pages of HTML with tags in them or write a lot of print statements (something like servlets did in Java etc?
I don't know exactly how to phrase this question. 
I actually need a presentation of how web development is performed in Python, at what level, and what the web frameworks bring to the table.
Can you share from your experience?
TIA!
