Don't let the look and feel fool you. Socialist Software is now powered by Django. I modified the new Wordpress K2 theme to work as Django templates and what you see is the result. Some notable things:

1. The comments on this site are powered by a modified django/contrib/comments app. The stock app did not support commenter's url's, so I copied the comments app out of django/contrib and into the local projects app dir to make the necessary modifications.
2. I wanted to use the django/contrib/redirects app to handle redirects from the old Wordpress site. However since Wordpress uses the query string to pass page, rss feed and tag data Django never caught the 404 necessary to perform the redirect. Instead I had to use mod_rewrite to catch and redirect any links. (This is more of a Wordpress gripe than a Django problem)
3. I think it took me longer to migrate the data from the Wordpress database into the Django one than to do anything else. And Django even made that super easy because I didn't have to write sql to insert in the the Django database. The Django database api took care of it all.

All in all, I am very pleased to have transistioned from Wordpress to a Django based solution.   Things I would like to add in the future:

1. xml rpc capability so I can use desktop blogging tools to make posts.
2. a tag cloud
3. Upcoming.org integration
4. Technorati integration
