Hi Chris, thank you for your call for action. Currently if I understood correctly the TG project is working on two separate paths: 1 - Projecting an evolution of TG based on Pyramid 2 - Maintain the current TG+Pylons project Currently I'm not really interested in the point 1 as it is a long term project, but I'm really interested in giving an hand to the point 2. As you stated we are now in a frezze status and currently the main problem that I see is related to project organization. I'll try to point out what is my perception. TG will become part of the Pylons project but: - Will the ticket/sprint management tools move on the pylons infrastructure? Where should we keep opening/closing tickets? Also the current TG trac is quite caoting a cleanup would be a huge improvement. - Who is currently in charge of the Doc sprint leadership? I really loved the work that M. Pedersen was doing before the merge announce, but lately he disappeared and it seems that we are now without a "tg doc boss". I saw some people recently proposing changes to the doc and asking where to send them without receiving an answer so bringing those people together will probably give a huge boost to the doc quality. - What should we do with the Development sprint? Chris Perkins was handling the TG2.1 and 2.2 releases and currently the TG2.2 release is really needed as 2.1 introduced a few bugs which should be fixed to maintain a good perception of the TG project to users. This is just my perception so it might be totally wrong, my main perception is that we are probably in a limbo and if we hang here too much we will just lose users appearing as a dead project. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
