As some of you know TurboGears 2 will be working very closely with Pylons to create a more "full stack" approach to python web development on top of the same infrastructure as Pylons. Our goal is to make a version of Pylons which is as easy to get started with as Django, and even more powerful. Most of the work required to make that happen has already occurred, but there's still lots of interesting stuff to do.
To that end, I'm trying to organize a world wide virtual and in person TurboGears 2 sprint on the 12th and 13th of January. Ben has already suggested a few ideas for how TG2 people can help out with some of the core pylons stuff. There are quite a few TG developers who are very new to the world of Pylons, so it would be super helpful if some folks who know pylons could participate too. And there are a few areas, where I think we ought to work together on things. Right now TG2's dispatch mechanism is entirely independent from Routes, and we don't quite know how to make totally RESTful resources drop-dead easy to create and use in TG2/pylons. I want this to be easier to do than it is in Rails, and one option would be to continue to work on making rest stuff even easier in routes. But that would also mean making TG2 more routes aware, which i think would require a tool to automatically generate Routes based on walking the object tree on the root controller object. Another area where we can work together somewhat is on the web helpers module, which could use cleanup, documentation, and some general love. Anyway, I think a lot can be done on both TG2 and Pylons, and working together we can do some really great stuff. So feel free to drop by the wiki page and add ideas of projects we should work on, or to sign up to attend the sprint. http://docs.turbogears.org/SprintOrganization -- Mark Ramm-Christensen email: mark at compoundthinking dot com blog: www.compoundthinking.com/blog --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
