What about adding chesseshop classifiers to turbogears.quickstart. +project+.egg-info.PKG-INFO? If by convention there was a default classifier 'Environment :: TurboGears' for all quickstarted TG apps, we could even have a tool in toolbox that could query the cheeseshop and show them categorised (and a TG' website could automatically pull a list of fresh baked apps)

For example, the email routine I wrote and posted, if it doesn't make

But what is the problem of having it there -- cheeseshop, etc. -- and citing
that it requires TG?  I believe it would bring visibility to TG.

I know that we don't want to re-invent the wheel but this is sort of
like documentation.  TG can point at the documentation for all the
component projects but that is a lot of reading. It would be better if TG had it's own documentation on the TG way. With a lot of work, I can get any of the cheeseshop routines to work with TG. However, I am lazy
and would rather not wade through over 1000 routines to find the TG
ones.

Your intent, then, is to simplify searching for TG_stuff... I see... But then, CheeseShop already allows searching based on several information fields.
It is just a matter of having all TG packages adding something like
"Topic::TurboGears" or adding "TurboGears" in the Summary, Description, etc.

The underlying reason is just to reduce the learning curve.  TG has
done some reat work with screencasts and a really helpful user
community.

I'm more to reuse CheeseShop and enhance TG's visibility. Creating everything new would work as well -- or even better -- but would isolate TG from the rest
of the Python community...

Just my humble opinion, though...
