Funny, because I was thinking about doing the exact opposite with
DBSprockets.  Django is on my proverbial chopping block.

Am I *not* a toscawidgets committer?  I thought I was.  If not, givey,
givey.  I already have one change to make TW Grok/Zope compatible.  I
agree, Alberto is busy.

Alberto has divulged at least a few pieces of *magic* to me because I
used similar design patterns in DBSprox.  I can help explain how
things work as much as possible, I just can't write docs for someone
else's project and produce 4000+ lines of code in 2 months.  I have
someone helping me with the DBSprox dox, maybe I can get him to help
with TW once he comes up to speed.

I think TW will become a lot more attractive once people start using
DBSprockets.Primitives more.  There *will* be good documentation for
that.  I promise.
