Sorry Sebastian!  I simply haven't had the time to follow the breakneck
pace of TurboGears development in the last month.  Things have been very
busy at my work, as I am sure you understand.  Once TurboGears 1.0 comes
out, I will be doing a complete update to make it as simple as possible
to install Fast Track on top of that solid and stable foundation, which
should make the whole thing a lot smoother for you (and me!).

Lets see if I can help you out here in the meantime.

I believe that you are running into some of the changes in identity that
have occurred over the last two alphas of TurboGears.  Try reviewing the
upgrade procedures on the TurboGears preview site for 0.9a4->0.9a5- 
 >0.9a6
and I bet you can track down the problem and even provide a patch to  
help
catch Fast Track up with the times!  I have seen the "by_user_name"  
error
before, and I think its a result of a change in identity.

Fast Track is one of the only open source applications available as an
example for TurboGears, and I think its quite important to keep it up to
date.  If anyone out there wants to start contributing to the  
project, it
would help me out a great deal as I simply won't have the time until 1.0
comes out to really put in the effort needed to get it running again.
