The TurboGears project applied for the 2008 installment of the Google Summer of Code program and I volunteered to act as the program's administrator on behalf of our project. Today, Google announced the list of mentoring organisations, which were accepted. I am very delighted (and also a bit surprised) that TurboGears is one of them!

There hasn't been a major TurboGears release for some time now, so some people might have gotten the impression that this project is stalled. But this is fortunately far from the truth. While Florent Aide is working continuously on fixing bugs in the TG 1.x branch and preparing a 1.1 release, the folks around Mark Ramm are advancing towards bringing the new TG 2.0 to a point where it is ready for wider use.

We just released the latest release in the 1.0.x series, TurboGears 1.0.3. I actually helped pushing it out the door a little bit. You can read what's new on the change log page.

While working on the TurboGears documentation wiki, I wanted to provide a link list for useful TurboGears resources. To make it easier to update and re-use this list, I decided to keep it in the XBEL format.

My blog was offline for quite some time due to technical problems and self-motivational reasons but now I finally brought it back online. This also involved moving the software to a new host and updating it to run under TurboGears 1.0.2.2.

I plan to participate in the upcoming TurboGears DocSprint on Saturday. This is the first time I'm attending a sprint, if only remotely via IRC. I'm looking forward to it and think it will be an interesting experience in the realm of "distributed virtual team collaboration". Since I've set myself up as a freelancer now, working from home most of the time, I better get used to this ;-)

I recently read Nadav Samet's nice tutorial on How To Implement Tagging With TurboGears and SQLAlchemy and since I have implemented a very similar tagging mechanism for CBlog , but am using SQLObject instead, I want to show you that this can be done very easily too.

I took the plunge and released the first public alpha version of CBlog today and registered it in the Python Package Index (aka Cheesehop).

If you have, like me, a TurboGears app, which was quickstarted with a TG version from before changeset 1603 was included, you might get bitten by the same problem, which hit me, when I tried to upgrade my TurboGears version from 1.0b1 to 1.0b2.

A few days ago I described how I set up supervisor to control a TurboGears application on Ubuntu. I was using supervisor version 1.0.7, because I wasn't aware of the existence of supervisor2, which supersedes version 1.x and has a lot more features. Since then, I have successfully set up supervisor2 as well and I am now using it exclusively to start/stop and monitor TurboGears apps on my production machine.

Since my shiny, new TurboGears application (yes, you're looking at it!) has progressed so far as to be actually usable, I wanted to deploy it in a "production" enviroment, i.e. with automatic startup at server boot time, restarting when it crashes and the ability to monitor it remotely. I googled a bit for the right tools and found supervisor. This post reports my endeavours in setting it up on my Ubuntu box, which was successfull in the end, but not before some struggling.

The TurboGears/CherryPy application server for this blog engine is now running behind a nginx reverse proxy on a name-based virtual host. This has several advantages:

The first iteration of this application was created within approx. three hours only. Since then, I have spent a lot more time on coding it, but I have also learned a lot about concepts and internals of TurboGears.
