Hi all! I'm still using tg 1.5 and still loving it. I started with tg 1, learnt tg 1.5 and got stuck with it mainly because I never needed the new features of tg 2. And usually I don't do upgrades just for fun, only if I *really* need the new features, etc. So I'm happily using tg 1.5 for hobby and personal projects (don't have anything else actually).
