Grok - new Python web application framework

New is maybe a slight overstatement - version 0.10.1 was released in October. Grok is based on Zope 3 but promises to hide the Zopeness from the developer. It relies on Zope Page Templates and the ZODB - Zope’s Obejct database. Last time I toyed around with Zope - just around the time Zope 3 was released - I recall with some agony. Grok seems to adopt an approach similar to Django/TurboGears in terms of usage pattern. I intend to give Grok a spin in the near future and will report back.
