I would love to see a series of tutorials that goes through initial
development of a project, then refactors it to include some additional
functionality. It would make sense to base this off an existing
tutorial.

The reason I want to see this is that, well, this is something that a
lot of people don't really think about. I have heard a lot of arguments
against "new style" web frameworks that start with "yeah, you can make
a quick start, but how easy will it be to maintain 3-6 months later?" I
think turbogears can win for this. If anyone who has written an
existing tutorial wants to work on a follow up along these lines,
please let me know.

Here is my idea:
1) Take an existing tutorial. Package it up for those who want the "We
just fired Bob, so now you get to fix it" experience. We could even use
that as a mini tutorial on how to package up apps for redistrobution.
2) Come up with some requirements changes. I would like to try and come
up with some that involve changes to each part of the MVC, something
that requires a similar but not quite change which would involve
refactoring existing code.

Maybe this is biting off more than I can chew, but I think showing that
this can be done (easily) in TG would be a win.
