I think the best approach right now is "cleaning" the install. The biggest issue is that setuptools is "file hungry" that is it creates about 6-7 files per egg, and since TG uses a lot of them that's about 300 files that are useless in a GAE deployment environment. So creating a script that will delete all the cruft is ideal, in fact if I where to try this I'll write it as a patch to google-app-monkey, so you can have all the goodies of setuptools for development and when it's time to deploy create a stripped down version to load into GAE. Which basically means creating a "tg minimal" library, this was discusses and the points outlined when GAE first came out, in this thread. http://groups.google.com/group/turbogears-trunk/browse_thread/thread/cf04f69063ea5fc8/ > On Sep 29, 11:19 am, "Jorge Vargas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> On Mon, Sep 29, 2008 at 9:32 AM, Sam G <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> > TurboGears Group, >> >> > I am wondering about the status of any development to make TG work on >> > Google App Engine.
