Wordpress releases Django, wait WTF?

As Kenyans continue to build their own CMS, Worpress has released version 3.1 and named it Django. The world meanwhile has decided to remain calm and not get confused by the naming. Wordpress has not confirmed whether a future release will be codenamed "Joomla" or "Drupal" -- with Regards: The Chinese are known to be entrepreneurs, and coupled with some imagination, are now playing the role of nature in food and beverage production. http://gramware.blogspot.com/2011/01/chinese-way-to-become-imaginative.html

Those rather imaginative chaps have decided to name it Reinhardt. Apparently, it was named after a mucisian Django Reinhardt and the first name seemed snazzy enough for 2 :-). On Wed, Feb 23, 2011 at 6:41 PM, Paul Kevin <paultitude@gmail.com> wrote:

Wordpress has always named its releases after legendary musicians. This is because the founder, Matt is a Jazz fanatic. This current release is called Reinhardt after Reinhardt Django... Nothing to do with the Django you are referring to. David. On Thu, Feb 24, 2011 at 7:55 AM, Frankline Chitwa <frank.chitwa@gmail.com>wrote:

@Dennis, Wordpress is a general purpose CMS. If you thought of a CMS as an automobile, wordpress would be a nissan matatu. If some creative Kenyans want to build an environmentally friendly hand cart to carry cabbages around in their organic farms let it be. My point is, it is sad to see this forum being used to bash innovation. Web developers face many content management challenges that require customized solutions that general purpose CMS'es fail to address. David.

In my view, Wordpress is one of the best CMS' ever made... and the growth from just a blogging platform to a full CMS is a nice one to watch. Wordpress in written in very simple structures and its theme frameworks are easy to work with. You can easily turn wordpress into anything and its more secure than most CMS systems. I did projects like http://kikwete2010.co.tz and http://shebaresorts.com on wordpress and I wouldnt go otherwise if I had a choice. David.

I believe the point of this thread was the at Wordpress has released a version called Django while there's already a web development framework called Django. The point wasnt whether wordpress is good or bad . -Billy

In which case u got the facts wrong, its not called Django.
