Last year at PyCon there were several Open Space sessions dedicated to WSGI framework issues and virtualenv, plus the large WSGI sprint. These were quite successful so we're trying to do the same this year. These are targeted to anyone interested in framework development, whether you're an official developer or not.
I've proposed a "State of the WSGI Frameworks" open space at 4pm Friday. I'd like a representative from each framework to give a 5-minute summary of what they've done in the past year and their next development plans. Ben or I can do Pylons, but we need somebody to do TurboGears, BFG, Marco, and any other frameworks that want to participate. We'll also be discussing topics and times for other open spaces during the conference. The time (4:00-4:55) was chosen because it's the only time that doesn't appear to conflict with a WSGI talk or framework-vital talk (e.g., Distribute, Form Panel). Other open spaces and sprints will be on WSGI/Python3, Marco, TopCloud, and I don't know what else. (Note: some of these will only be for advanced developers.) I'll be sprinting on WebHelpers, and would welcome help to finish up the documentation, patches, and some Grid helper work. Maybe I can even start the long-awaited FormEncode manual, as if. I've written up a semi-radical proposal to replace Pylons' WSGI stack with a WebOb-based stack, so this will also be among the discussions. With the impasse on getting WSGI to Python 3, some of us are impatient to just go our own direction, and we may want to jump to a higher-level protocol while we're at it. http://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/pylonsprojects/WebOb+Stack -- Mike Orr <[email protected]> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
