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:

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!
