It would be great if Python would have so much hostings as PHP :)

I have maden mistake, right will be:
"I'm _not_ Java programmer, but discover xml.apache.org (cocoon f.e.)"

I'am PHP, Python (Zope) developer.

I need time for understunding syncato.

cool, syncato becomes clear for me.

Did you plan to write some article about this product for developers?

ok, I think that it's early to me to talk about features, while I
