Well my "pet" project is finally out, check out:
pyForum Message Board System.
pyForum is the first full-fledged python-based message board system in the galaxy, I cannot say that I coded this in record time, however, it was relatively easy due to the fact that web2py rocks and allows you to "get to business" in record time.
Released under the GPLv3, you may download the source code and tinker with it if you wish, all you need is a RDBMS supported by web2py (MySQL, Postgres, MSSQL, etc, etc.) and an Operating System supported by web2py (Linux, OS X, Windows).
Cheers.

Thanks for your comments Jorge,
I've been trying to keep up with the latest developments of this great framework, unfortunately my "real" job usually keeps me from being immersed (as I would like to) in the python world, indeed pyForum is somewhat of a "proof of concept" of how "easy" a web application can be written in python.
The general consensus is that python is good for "under-the-hood" or back-end processes and we should leave the frontend gui stuff to other "proven" technologies such as php or even (argh) .net, this is an outdated view of web development in my opinion.
Anyway, I will start being a bit more involved in this blog now that I found the best mobile OS ;) (Check newer posts).
Cheers,
JulioF

Hi there,
I was wondering if there are any plans for keeping pyForum going? It looks like a great project, but I've not seen much activity on it in the last year or so.
Thanks!
