Choosing a web framework

We’re looking at developing a new product, and need a framework. The techs argue about Django, Ruby on Rails, Pylons, Turbo Gears, Mason, Zope and Cake, and all the arguments sound good.  So I thought, what if we need to hire someone quickly… ( see we’ve been using Zope for a while, and that can be tough to get developers for )

odesk.com- title only search - number of providers that match the skill 

  • django - 14
  • ruby on rails - 230
  • pylons - 0
  • turbo gears - 0
  • zope - 10
  • .net - 2916

=====

jobserve.com - jobs that require the skill (or mention it )

  • ruby  - 94
  • Django - 9
  • zope - 8
  • pylons 2
  • turbo 1

So, this is pretty arbitary,   but we’re a python house, so it looks like Django wins.
