Usefull django packages
There are many reasons why I like developing web applications with Python and Django but the main one is the awesome community and projects around the language and framework. Every time I search for something there’s always a Django or Python project available to make my life easier.
Here’s an incomplete list of Python and django related projects that I have used or I’m planning to test. This might help someone starting out to get an idea of how awesome is to work with this technologies.

FeinCMS
https://github.com/matthiask/feincms
FeinCMS is an extremely stupid content management system. It knows nothing about content — just enough to create an admin interface for your own page content types. It lets you reorder page content blocks using a drag-drop interface, and you can add as many content blocks to a region (f.e. the sidebar, the main content region or something else which I haven’t thought of yet). It provides helper functions, which provide ordered lists of page content blocks. That’s all.
