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.
