not really. I think the problem here is that your used to the django way, in
django everything the framework is is done by the same team, django
templates, django db api, django foo and dejango bar, TG is totally
different in this place. I posted a link below to the Philosophy page. We
are doing the bet of integrating third party to concentrate on making a tool
based on the best that is available for each task. now this of course has
the problem (which you are experiencing) that the best varies from person to
person and from project to project.

Now it's your opinion that SO needs more docs I'll suggest to contribute at
their documentation instead of complaining to either TG or SO. if you don't
think your qualified to do so, then write something even a blog post that
could be the base for a better contribution.

your missing the point, we do not need to duplicate documentation, it's on
http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/Philosophy if it's already exist lets use it.


As for "incorporate" something I believe your lacking in history of the
project back when it started when Kevin came up with the idea of TG itself
this was the best tool.

And it is very confusing to use who are just starting out.  If I use

no it will never be drop it will just stop being the default, same with kid
same with whatever else we replace.

 Will I have to re-write everything using SA in a year?  If so, just say so.

maybe it all depends on what extra tools you want TG won't force you but
maybe you will force yourself because there is-this-really-nice-component
that only works on top of SA.

now in general I don't like your tone specially because I'm giving you my
opinion and your taking it as the TG opinion.
