Hi, that is great to hear!

Basically the first thing you need to decide is which version you want
to work on, tg1 or tg2. I personally favor tg1, that's the version I
use and there are lots of new things happening to that code base.
Migration to cherrypy 3 for example.

Others favor tg2, which is built on pylons and not cherrypy. I'm sure
tg2 users can recommend a good project that could get you started.
What I personally would like to see in tg2 is support for sqlobject.
Tg1 has support for both sqlobject and sqlalchemy as an orm, you can
choose which one to use. But tg2 at the moment only supports
sqlalchemy which is problematic for those of us who might consider
migrating to tg2 if support for sqlobject would be there. Actually it
might turn out that if a new tg1 version makes use of cherrypy 3 in a
cool way, well, in that case maybe I'd stick with tg1 and not migrate
at all.

All in all, implementing sqlobject support for tg2 would be a
worthwhile effort I think, and also helping with migrating the tg1
code base to cherrypy 3.

Cheers,
Daniel
