You may be right about Identity. But on the other hand, I've done
authentication myself in PHP, ASP, and CGI before, so the bare bones
shouldn't be that hard, if I can just get hold of a session object
from Turbogears. But, I don't know. I'm not sure what else Identity
buys me.

I wanted to use SA because I expect this project to be maintained for
quite some time, and I don't want to be in the position where I'm the
only one using the old stuff! It's actually likely to be a reasonably
complex application once it's done, though I'm yet to see any example
of something SA offers me over SO that I actually need.

Yeah, maybe it's better now. That was mainly a problem back in the
0.8/0.9 days where I couldn't get help due to everybody with any
knowledge on the list working with the trunk rather than the actual
released version. Still, even now lots of people are saying they use
SA, so that's a concern.
