the irc group on freenode has some groupies there who help. I have it installed, dont bother with debian, use a clean install of ubuntu
here are some notes to get started from a clean install (replace your own vars)
install Ubuntu 810 apt-get update apt-get install subversion adduser --home /home/bleu bleu su bleu svn co http://svn.scrapy.org/scrapy mv scrapy-trunk scrapy ls scrapy branches tags trunk sudo root as root apt-get install python-twisted apt-get install nano su bleu source ~/.bashrc pico ~/.bashrc #add this to end of file: export PYTHONPATH=/home/bleu/scrapy/trunk
python >>> import scrapy quit() scrapy/trunk/scrapy/bin/scrapy-admin.py startproject myproject

I want to ask people here thoughts on frameworks, this looks well suited to a project I have, but it is built on Twisted and the preferred option of frameworks seems to be Django, now I'm a PHP coder, who is just about to step up to the python challenge so I am thinking it would be better to start with a more established framework? Thoughts would be most welcome.
