What does this mean, for the Zope-challenged?  Pylons traversal is
Routes plus the PylonsApp and base controller code beyond that.
Repoze traversal is based on a configuration file?  Or what makes it
more useful in some cases?

Meaning what?

For how long?  Five years, ten years, twenty years?  I have a bit of a
problem with the idea that the developers should support it "forever".
 If the developers were to lose interest in Pylons today, there would
still be Pylons apps running in five years which the developers should
support.  In ten years there may or may not be a few apps still
running, but whether it's reasonable to expect support then is
debatable.  Twenty years is meaningless in Internet-time because the
potential for paradigm shift is so great; there may not be any "web
apps" by then.
