Re: Is CherryPy dead?

Here, we use cherrypy for our main product, with some decent traffic. It's not "web scale" and it does not involve tons of virtualized servers, but it's definitely at the scale where bottlenecks are visible and brittle code breaks. And cherrypy is not one of those.

It's simple and extensible, and does everything we need it to. And when I have a question, I just look at the source code.

If you need to convince investors, or potential recruits, with the latest trendy stuff, it might be a good idea to use something else. But if you need a simple, reliable, mature, and battle-hardened micro framework for Python, I would definitely recommend cherrypy.
