The person behind PyFIT is John Roth. I don't know is he a member of
this list, but he seems to be posting to Fitnesse mailing list [1]
quite regularly. You may want to send your questions there too.

Nose is a unit testing framework and thus a tool mainly developers
use. FIT, on the other hand, is an acceptance testing framework that
is (or at least should be) mainly used for collaboration between
customers, developers and testers. I assume most people on this list
are developers, so it's no wonder that unit testing tools are
discussed here more often than higher level tools.

If you are interested on Python acceptance testing frameworks, you may
also want to check out Robot Framework. It would be really nice for
our project to get some feedback from people who've also used (Py)FIT.
