This is a great news.
Congratulations to all the contributors, you all must be saluted for
your tireless work and dedication for this amaisingly powerful and
flexible web application framework.
I understand that many contributers are working full-time on another job
and out of their precious spare time contribute to this framework.
Even then dedicated support is available, thanks to all who have given
their best to pylons.
I would like to know if the pylons wiki and the pylons book is also
going to be upgraded soon to version 1.0?
I was a newbie to web application development just 5 months ago. Being
a lead developer and principle investigator for a huge project for rural
banking and micro finance, I had to take a decision to migrate our
desktop based FOSS application to web based application. Pylons is
being used to develop the web app and it will become the part of the
revolution which will happen after our software is released. We are
very very happy with Pylons and I look forward to develop more
applications using Pylons.
Happy hacking.

Pylons 1.0 has been released. Just 4 months after the first 1.0 beta was
released we're pleased to have the final 1.0 out today. Pylons 0.10 has also
been released to ease the transition for those migrating.
It's been quite a long road since Pylons was first released 5 years ago and
there's been quite an evolution of paradigms used in Pylons since. The Pylons
book came out last year and Pylons has seen increased use and a growing
community.
Two of this year's PyCon talks highlighted how to scale Python web
applications, both of them running Pylons. Millions of dollars in charter
flights were processed through a high transaction value website running Pylons,
tens of millions of website pages were served on Pylons driven websites, and
TurboGears 2 was released (also built on Pylons!).
What's Changed?
Since Pylons itself is so small, most of the changes since the 0.9.7 release
have come through in the way of the various packages Pylons requires. Beaker,
Routes, SQLAlchemy, and WebHelpers have received a variety of updates. As a
result, updates have been flowing out even though Pylons itself hasn't gotten
many updates.
Pylons 1.0 finally drops all the legacy handlers from the 0.9 series, reducing
the codebase from ~1300 lines of code, to 1080. Not many frameworks actually
shed code between releases, and I'd like to be able to keep Pylons this small
going forward as we've shrunk the code-base for almost every release of Pylons
since the 0.8 series.
For those upgrading applications from 0.9.7, upgrade notes can be found here:

The full changelog's from all the dependencies get a bit verbose, so some quick
points:
* Pylon's Changelog http://bitbucket.org/bbangert/pylons/src/tip/CHANGELOG
* Beaker Changelog http://bitbucket.org/bbangert/beaker/src/tip/CHANGELOG
* Routes Changelog http://bitbucket.org/bbangert/routes/src/tip/CHANGELOG
* Webhelpers Changelog
http://bitbucket.org/bbangert/webhelpers/src/tip/CHANGELOG
Thanks to all the contributors who have helped make this happen, and the Pylons
community for helping to keep Pylons great!
