Hi,

Relying on Node.js actually opens up a lot of possibilities in the future for us to do realtime websocket communications via node.js and still rely on django to do the heavy lifting:

I'm not so enthusiastic about Node.js just because it's Javascript and I've seen what developers can do with JS. I think python is much more readable and maintainable, so if there will be a need to overload server with realtime communication and increase it's speed (because it's the main advantage of node.js), maybe it's better to look for tools written in python. I'm not and expert in python, but I read something about PyPy which is faster than node.js and Tornado (supports websocket - afaik, and as I remeber, it is used somewere in Openstack). As I said I'm not an expert and for sure it will require more than I think to use those technologies, but it's only and an idea. Right now if node.js is used only to support Less it's ok, but I'm not convinced node.js is the best way to expand possibilities. * * Cheers,
