Based on my collegue opinion I could recommend you <a href="http://www.kohanaphp.com/home" rel="noreferrer">kohana</a> framework. The downside is, it's written in PHP and, as far as I know, PHP doesn't have superb tools for debugging, profiling and packaging of apps.</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> Here is a very good <a href="http://bud.ca/blog/pony" rel="noreferrer">article about packaging and deployment of Python apps</a> (specifically Django apps). It's a hot topic in Django community now.</p>
