I propose the community (if not the core devs 
<http://compoundthinking.com/blog/index.php/2007/06/27/turbogears-11-and-beyond/#comment-73967>)
 
write upgrade 
<http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/RoughDocs/Upgrade?highlight=%28upgrade%29> 
scripts <http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/Upgrade?highlight=%28upgrade%29> 
that do the majority of the syntax changes necessary to upgrade 
<http://docs.turbogears.org/1.1/RoughDocs/Upgrade?highlight=%28upgrade%29> 
to TG 2:

kid2genshi 
<http://docs.turbogears.org/2.0/MigratingTo2?highlight=%28migrating%29>
sqlobject2sqlalchemy
tg2tw 
<http://docs.turbogears.org/1.1/RoughDocs/MigratingFromTG10?highlight=%28migrating%29>
migrateTests <http://docs.turbogears.org/1.1/TestMigration>

Of course the scripts won't be perfect but they can save someone time.  
SOtoElixir <http://docs.turbogears.org/1.1/RoughDocs/SOtoElixir> already 
exists in principle, though not in code.  I'd like to see all this info 
gathered into one page 
<http://docs.turbogears.org/2.0/RoughDocs/1.1Migration?highlight=%28upgrading%29>
 
and then automated as people have time.  Looks to me like some people 
have been working on documenting these migration steps--thank you very 
much for that!
