djng—a Django powered microframework
http://simonwillison.net/2009/May/19/djng/

Intrigued by microframeworks.

The trickiest problem I still need to solve is how to replace settings.py. A group of developers (including Adrian, Armin, Alex and myself) had an excellent brainstorming session at EuroDjangoCon about this. We realised that most of the stuff in settings.py can be recast as configuring services which Django makes available to the applications it is hosting.

I like the idea of a one-file microframework for websites. It is like SQLite instead of a fullfledged DBMS.

Simon Willison on his __djng microframework__ (which depends on Django). I share his hatred for settings.py and I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
