summary
A university runs a repeatable DevTap process with a 200-question audit and about 20 engineers prototyping three finalists in two weeks, and the result picks Python and Django; implementation teams build a production shoutouts app that still runs years later, add Excel support to DRF, join Wagtail core, and report that community governance and help‑fulness (not just tech features) proves decisive.
