If anybody wants to help with 1.5 contact me or Florent, and we'll help you get started.
Otherwise I think 1.1 is a good goal for 1.x developers and is very close to complete. 1.5's goal was to provide an intermediary stepping stone between 1.1 and 2.0, but I think the same can be accomplished by adding SQLObject and Kid support to 2.0 and improving the 2.0 migration docs. GearShift is something TG 1.x users should know about. It was created off of 1.5 code, but now released to move out on it's own and become whatever it will be. Unlike 1.5 it's not just a stepping stone between 1.1 and 2.0. It can definitely be used to serve that purpose, but it is also free to invent new API's and diverge from both 1.x and 2.x. GearShift is another proof that 1.x code need not be abandoned, even if the TG community abandoned 1.x itself (which we have no plans to do), people like Dag would pick up the slack and provide a supported environment. -- Mark Ramm On Fri, May 29, 2009 at 11:42 PM, Ken Kuhlman <[email protected]> wrote: > I have decided to discontinue pursuit of a 1.5 release of TurboGears.
