We last left Frank back in 2006(!) with the publication of his (then) first book. I caught up with him to talk about his latest book (#6!) - Practical Palm Pre webOS Projects (we eventually get the title right!). Frank talks about the good, the bad and the ugly in the Palm Pre development world.

Episode 68: Frank Wierzbicki on Python, Jython, Java and more
I had a chance to catch up with local Jython hero and project lead (I get corrected early on!) Frank Wierzbicki. We cover some of the history, Jython players, web frameworks like Django, Pylons, TurboGears, future of Jython, and more. Frank takes *no* bait, despite my varied attempts at inciting a bit of friendly rivalry between the Jython/Python community and various frameworks.
