Since I'm doing something similar in an enterprise environment I suggest you to add , to each cron, a dates black-list. I mean a list of dates in which you do not want the job to be executed ( Christmas , Easter etc). Kudos for the clean documentation

I switch from Rails to Django a while ago. On a feature base the two frameworks are equals. I explained it in depth in this video http://vimeo.com/31083901 ( It's in Italian,mf.Du you speak it?! :-) ). Basicaly I turn on django beacuse I prefer Python to Ruby: again the two languages starts from the same assumptions ( Guido also told that ) it's just my personal taste. Also django do things THE WAY I like more. For ex: the configuration is simpler because it uses python files as config an not [name yours]ml. That said in DEVELOPMENT MODE ( production is a total different world ) Django is faster than Rails. The time to running test/ start dev server is not 100% of a developer productivity so I'm not saying that django is more productive than rails. I'm saying that I'm more productive with django than with rails. Use C++, Fortran ,Lisp ,Scala what ever you want: just deliver good software. PLZ

Lot of potential but little money.
"Italian VC investors (I mean the ones based in Italy) are, in general, famously useless at identifying high growth businesses in their own country"
Sad but true.

Design patterns are useful because they improve.. design. I mean application and code design. They model a recognizable structure. You are right: they have been sold as the ace of all trades in CS books and courses and they are not. That lead to the ' factories of factories of metafactories ' situation. Experience and intelligence are the real 'ace of all trades'. On the other side chaos is not good for anyone. Instead having a common lingo to identify code structure and common solutions to local architectural challenges is a good thing.

In Italy is even worst. Local Laws are a jibberish with regulations from the roman empire and the Napoleon invasion ( not joking). Build an equity based company requires huge amount of work and capital. But the saddest part is that investors prefer "stock game" on real company investment. We are used to say that a young founder is the son of an old founder. It means that in Italy capital passes as legacy from father to son and never goes to the market, and often when it does is burnt.
