If you have a site that uses Webware add it to this list. If the site is for internal use only just add a description rather than a link. If you don't mind sharing your source code add a link to a tarball. Please sign and date your entries/comments and use horizontal rules to separate the entries.
If your site uses Cheetah please also add a note on the Cheetah.WhoIsUsingCheetah page.
Ideas for info to include:
link
basic description
notes on the tools / architecture used
time and effort involved
was it a for-fun, non-profit, in-house, consulting or biz-start-up project?
Note
This is not an exhaustive list of all the places Webware is being used. Most of the people using it haven't added a note here yet.

My home turf home of the PyDiddy WikiWeb.
totally done with Webware
time and effort involved was much, as it was my first WW project
it is for-fun
Normal Mailorder is a very cool german record shop specialized in all kinds of alternative, independent music from pop to hiphop.
I developed the online shop, which is of course done with solely with Webware. The database backend is abstracted by use of SQLObject , which saved my a** because MySQL proved to be too unstable and I had to switch to PostreSQL really fast. Thanks to SQLObject this required only the change of just a single line in the whole application.
There was quite some time and effort involved in doing it, but it would not only have taken much longer to develop without Webware: a lot of things would have been near impossible for a single guy team.
this was in part a commercial job.
