I am not sure if the original poster asked the question he intended. I think he wanted to ask -- if you were developing a site today, would you use TurboGears 1 or TurboGears 2?
Facing the same issue, I saw no real reason to not use TurboGears 2 with the assumption that our application would be developed over the course of a few months and TG2 would be mature enough during our testing and development and release would be timed close enough with a stable TG2. TG2 has some significant advantages over TG1. As far as code maturity, TG1 has a slight edge, but, TG2 is really a thin layer coordinating many established and developed products that have a relatively large installed base. To answer the original question, as someone not involved with the development, I think that trunk TG2 is probably stable enough to be considered over TG1. It was because of the ORM that I chose TG2 over django. django's documentation eclipses TG2 and they now support sqlalchemy. Using TG2, I felt like an outsider when trying the example code. Quite a bit didn't work and I wasn't sure if I was just dumb and didn't know what I was doing, or there were assumptions made that any beginning programmer should have known. As it turns out, there were a number of typos. Documentation will either turn TG2 into an web development firm's open source toolkit, or a web framework to be widely adopted. I'd prefer the latter. While I do feel that the time based releases are able to be planned around, a roadmap with estimated completions is just fine with me. Even a basic guideline like 2Q2009, 2H2009 would be fine for me. While I've not completely tested all of the framework functionality that I need, I feel relatively comfortable that TG2 will handle my requirements.
