I'll change my vote to Hypernucleas.  :)

I think this really depends on what your target for the server is.  Is
the server just sending data to the client?  Is the server something
that's going to run by itself?  Is it all bundled into a web-app that
anyone with a browser can view?

I'm fairly new to the whole mass of python web frameworks, but it
seems that cherrypy is fairly low-level, but would be a good choice
for a stand-alone server that just feeds info to the pygamedb client.
If you're wrapping it all up in a web client, I'd suggest looking into
Django.  I've been using it on a new project for about 3 months, now,
and I'm happy with it.  It can serve HTML content, XML content, PDF...
whatever (though it's suggested that it runs in Apache with
mod-python)

I have no experience with pylons.

>>> cheetah or some other templating engine?
This suggests you want a web-app rather than a stand-alone server.
Django has built-in templates, though it "can" use cheetah, or others.


PS: I'm willing to test on Mac OS X.
