Oct 4, 2009: TurboGears 1.1 final released!
The TurboGears 1 team is pleased to announce the release of TurboGears 1.1 final, the first stable version of the 1.1 branch. We made a few more important changes after the 1.1rc1 release candidate.
Turbogears 1.1 has been rather long in the making but this means that the current code has been running stable in production environments for several months now. 1.1 brings many, many small improvements and fixes and uses most of the same defaults as TG2 while being 100 percent compatible with TG1 applications. For more information on what's new, please see the changelog.
With TurboGears 1.1 out the door, the TurboGears 1 team will take some time to evaluate, where its efforts are best spent in the future. We are commmited to supporting the TurboGears 1 branch in the future (to prove it, we will isue a TurboGears 1.0.x maintenance release in the next few weeks) but we are interested to know, how you want Turbogears to evolve!. We will conduct a survey amongst TurboGears users and followers, which we are going to announce very soon, and we hope that many, many of you will participate! Stay tuned...
May 27, 2009: TurboGears 2.0 available.
TurboGears 2 is the next stage in TurboGears development, and provides a solid base on which the future of TurboGears will be built. The 2.0 release does not spell the end of 1.0 support, and while it's new, there are already people using it in production. So, if you're interested in working with the latest turbogears, check out the new TG2 release, or just read up on it in the new docs. TurboGears 2 is designed to get you going with sane defaults and gets out of your way when you know what you want. We want to make easy things easy and still leave you in charge for since you know the needs of your application better than we do.
