If you are in need of a CMS, there are a few guys working on something called Vudo.
Also, I think Alberto has really done a great job integrating widgets into the view the way it is done. In TG2 the widgets act more like view objects because they are passed directly in to pylons.c.w . I think widgets break MVC a little bit anyway, and I am ok with this. Think about how you might fill a select drop-down with data from a database field. Definitely need some model information in your view to do that one! Why spend your time re-inventing the wheel when there are so many current open source projects that could use your help, or other new problems that need solving? I've got at least one project in mind that could use some help.... -chris --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
