Should I use Pylons or Pyramid?

I was planning to move from Django to Pylons, but then I bumped into Pyramid.

What are the differences between Pylons and Pyramid?

I read some text in PylonsBook, which currently covers Pylons 0.9.7, and wonder if it is a to start for Pylons and Pyramid.

You want to go with Pyramid most probably. It may seem like it's a more complicated system, but it's actually much cleaner and very intuitive. Furthermore, the documentation for the project is simply awesome and in my opinion, even better then the django project which is well known for it's documentation.

That does not make it "like django" however. It is still lightly coupled and you can use whatever template, database, form, session management system, etc that you like.

It's worth noting that Pyramid is a base framework and Pylons is being built on top of it.
