You might want to be aware of this too:

Interpreted language-based frameworks tends to be the slowest ones to perform

Just going on community size is rarely a good yardstick for framework choice.
Look at the team you have today, the team you want tomorrow, the scale your app is likely to grow (both in terms of traffic and code base size).

You will never go wrong if you start your project with django(Python framework)...it has been so active in the recent years and promises to be the future because even the python language itself is so active.
Yup you are right. But python is a bit on the slower side in comparison to PHP and that is why the dilemma.
The difference in speed between Python and PHP should not be a deciding factor in choosing between the two web frameworks. Many of the core PHP functions are implemented in C directly, so they are very fast, but once you add a framework into the mix, speed drops off considerably because it seems the PHP interpreter is not so good.
I think you shouldn't care so much about community, because in every case it is big enough.
I thing question is which stack (PHP/Ruby/Python) is the best for your project.

Any of these will do just fine - they all have active communities, good docs and have proven themselves again and again - choose what your team is most comfortable with/efficient in.
LOL! this seems a pretty novel way to gain karma. Will try it myself ;)
Well you can just put your comments. No need to upvote. Not intentional.
