@ -29,3 +29,20 @@ Does Scrapy work with Python 3.0?
No, and there are no plans to port Scrapy to Python 3.0 yet. At the moment
Scrapy requires Python 2.5 or 2.6.
Does Scrapy "stole" X from Django?
----------------------------------
Probably, but we don't like that word. We think Django is a great open source
project and an example to follow, so we've used it as an inspiration for
Scrapy.
We believe that, if something is already done well, there's no need to reinvent
it. This concept, besides being one of the foundations for open source and free
software, not only applies to software but also to documentation, procedures,
policies, etc. So, instead of going through each problem ourselves, we choose
to copy ideas from those projects that have already solved them properly, and
focus on the real problems we need to solve.
We'd be proud if Scrapy serves as an inspiration for other projects. Feel free
to stole from us!
