The :app:`Pyramid` authors believe that the MVC pattern just doesn't
really fit the web very well. In a :app:`Pyramid` application, there is a
- model, which stores data, and views, which present the data stored in the
- model. However, no facility provided by the framework actually maps to
- the concept of a "controller". So :app:`Pyramid` is actually an "MV"
