Choosing Python/SQLObject webframework

Question

I have a regular desktop application which is written in Python/GTK and SQLObject as ORM. My goal is to create a webinterface where a user can login and sync/edit the database. My application is split up in different modules, so the database and gtk code are completly separate, so I would like to run the same database code on the webserver too.

So, I would like to know if there's a webframework which could handle these criteria:

User authentication
Use my own database code/SQLObject
Some widgets to build a basic ui

This would be my first webproject, so I'm a bit confused by all searchresults. CherryPy, Turbogears, web2py, Pyramid? I would be happy if someone could give me some pointers what would be a good framework in my situation.

Any of the options you name would work. Scan through their docs, and decide what looks like the nicest to you.

Flask is another lightweight option: http://flask.pocoo.org/

Django would work too (just ignore its ORM for your own work, and configure it to look at a different database within your database server, to keep it separated from your own ORM).

Try the pyramid, it does not impose anything you like as opposed to Django. And has a wealth of features for building Web applications at any level.
