New website!

Well, here it is. Finally we've got the new site running! It is hosted by Zettai and it is Django.

While BerliOS provides an excellent service, I always had reservations about the Mambo/PHP based site. There are a couple of reasons for that:

  • one of mapnik's goals is to provide bindings for 'cool' high-level languages and Python fits this bill nicely
  • let's spit it out: PHP sucks! (IMHO).

I hope you'll enjoy the new site and feel free to send your comments/suggestions.
