There's been a bit of discussion on the list, and I want to re-assure TG 1.x users that they are not being abandoned. We intend to support 1.x long term, and if you're willing to help out 1.x can continue to be maintained and improved as long as you want.
TG2 is not backwards compatable with 1.x in many ways, we've tried to keep the same API's for the core TG stuff most of the time, but updating 10% of a half million lines of code could still be a major undertaking. And many of us continue to maintain 1.x applications ourselves, which is just to say we're all still invested in 1.x continuing to live and thrive. TG2 does not support Kid or SQLObject at this time, but we'd be more than happy to help anybody who has kid/SQLObject code and wants to migrate to tg2 whithout having to rewrite that stuff. Kid support could probably be added by an interested party in a couple hours if they knew where to start, and SQLObject support might take more than that if you wanted to tie it in to the transactin manager and everything. But even SO support should be a reasonable task for a single person to do in a couple of days, and both would be gladly rolled into TG2 if somebody needs them. I have been using Genshi and SQLAlchemy for all my TG1 applications for a couple of years now, so that person isn't likely to be me, but I'm likely to be a great cheerleader and supporter of someone willing to help ;) -- Mark Ramm-Christensen email: mark at compoundthinking dot com blog: www.compoundthinking.com/blog --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
