Sure, this is as good a place as any. > For example, consider the case of deployment of a TG-based app in an > embedded systems environment.

Well, pylons has a minimal quckstart template equivelent, and an ORM is not really required for either TG or Pylons. TG2 isn't going to require a database connection or configuration to run, or automatically import the DB for you, those imports will be in code you control. So it should be a lot easier to build the minimum set of packages you need to run, and keep your memory footprint small in TG2 as compared to the original TurboGears. And if somebody contributes, and helps to maintain one, I'm sure we'd be very happy to have a TG Minimal template. > A "ezsetup.py -no_db" or "tg_admin quickstart -no_db" may be a good option > to have. This would be cool, but it might be more of a seprate project on top of pylons. The way I see it Pylons will be the uberflexible framework that you can build all kinds of different web-app-frameworks on, and TurboGears will be a particular layer on top of Pylons which gives you sane defaults, and focuses on creating a compelling experience for web develoers. I think you could say that TurboGears is to Pylons as Ubuntu is to Debian. > Also, it may be helpful, if there could be a cpl-page doc somewhere > that could describe (graphically) the role of each of the proposed pieces > of TG 2.0 - so some of us could understand the architecture/interactions > a lot better. Yea, I'll put that on the To-Do list. I'm sure it will help a lot of people to understand what's going on, and it might even encourage people to get involved with TG2 development. I will say however that we've got a LOT going on so this may not happen right away. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
