TurboGears 1.0.4.2 Released =========================== The TurboGears team with its release manager, Florent Aide, is pleased to announce the release of TurboGears 1.0.4.2.
This is the latest in a series of releases from the 1.0 branch, which has been the stable version of TurboGears for more than a year now. With this release the 1.0 branch will enter maintenance mode, which means, that the TurboGears 1 Team will concentrate on preparing a beta release of the 1.1 branch and only critical bug-fixes will still be released for 1.0. (In the meanwhile, other folks from the TurboGears team are putting together a preview release of the upcoming TurboGears 2 version -- but this is a different story.) What is TurboGears? ------------------- TurboGears is a popular rapid web development megaframework, built from a number of great Python projects and with a bunch of high-level features built within the TurboGears project. The goal of the project is to ease development of modern web applications and support the full stack from database back-end to the web client front-end.
