(many verbose inline-comments, docstrings, etc.) I'll invite you to look at the quickstart code and add as much stuff as you want, if you come to IRC right now we can do that. But as I'm a "seasoned dev" I really think it's way too bloated and it should be trimmed to like 1/3 of it's current size. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
