But what is the problem of having it there -- cheeseshop, etc. -- and citing
that it requires TG?  I believe it would bring visibility to TG.

Your intent, then, is to simplify searching for TG_stuff...  I see...  But
then, CheeseShop already allows searching based on several information fields.
It is just a matter of having all TG packages adding something like
"Topic::TurboGears" or adding "TurboGears" in the Summary, Description, etc.

I'm more to reuse CheeseShop and enhance TG's visibility.  Creating everything
new would work as well -- or even better -- but would isolate TG from the rest
of the Python community... 

Just my humble opinion, though...
