I don't think Dag's following the TG list anymore, so I'm cross-posting the reply to the gearshift mailing list. Please post any replies to the gearshift list.

Dag's understandably reluctant to post anything that might be perceived as GearShift marketing on the TG list, but since I'm not a GearShift contributor (yet) I'm not bound by the same constraints. So, I hope he will forgive me for forwarding portions of a private e-mail here: """... many exciting things have happened with GearShift (GS) ... Some of the features include: o OAuth identity integration o Facebook Connect identity integration o Google Friend Connect identity integration o Expose is a CP3 tool and separated from transactions o Transactions is a CP3 tool o RESTful controllers o Identity/require does not wrap the controllers (now a simple CP3 tool) o Markup exposes (markdown, rest, textile) o Optionally runs without setuptools (pkg_resources) o No peak.rules anymore o App Engine support o Can produce HTML, JSON or Atom from the same controller based on accept header. May also parse Atom and JSON in addition to urlencoded (post) data. All of this is however an undocumented feature with GearShift. """ As Mark hinted above, GearShift is a very friendly fork of TG 1.x. But again, please post any replies to this to the gearshift list. Let's not pollute the TG list any more than necessary.
