After confirmation of that from Gustavo, and thanks to Roland which
actually did the work, the pkg-turbogears has now disappeared from
alioth (I think the old data is still there, but it has been marked as
hidden, so that people do not mistake that for the actual packaging of
TG2, which is currently under the umbrella of Debian Python Modules
Team).

Cheers.

IIRC, I tried to contact Bob about joining pkg-turbogears lots of time
ago, and end up hijacking some of the work because he seemed to be MIA,
so I'd say that pkg-turbogears pretty much doesn't exist.

Some months ago I tried to package turbogears 2, and found that its
usage of setuptools was far more idiotic than I could bear, and decided
using CherryPy alone, with SQLAlchemy was more like it for me =/.

Here is where I put my preliminary work at, as far as I remember:

Go ahead, in my opinion =). And thanks for packaging TG2! Despite its
setuptools usage being somewhat dumb, I too prefer it over django for a
variety of reasons.

See you,

pkg-turbogears dead?

2009-05-29 Thread Stefano Zacchiroli 
Hi Kov and Bob,
  in the process of packaging Python modules that are needed for
TurboGears 2, I've stumbled upon the pkg-turbogears alioth project
[1], which looks like dead: not even turbogears 1 dependencies are
there and is inactive since 2006.

Can you confirm that?

Also, it looks like nowadays is more reasonable to package TG2
dependencies under the umbrella of the Python Modules team, since TG
is more and more thin and its external components are shared by other
applications or frameworks (e.g. Pylons).

If you confirm that the project is no longer in use, I propose to
request the alioth admin to close it, to diminish a bit the confusion
around TG in Debian :-)

Many thanks in advance!
Cheers.
