Multiple applications and Paste support

by Kevin Dangoor

Here’s a decent summary of a #cherrypy meeting (deFuze.org) we had yesterday in which we discussed the ability to run multiple CherryPy “apps” in the same server process and running CherryPy apps behind Paste. The short of it is that TurboGears 0.9 won’t run multiple apps in process, but somewhere between 0.9 and 1.0 we’ll either go with Ian Bicking’s CherryPaste or with CherryPy 2.2′s new tree.mount feature to allow multiple TurboGears apps to run in process. The choice between the two will be dependent on how comfortable with the mechanisms used. The CherryPaste solution is better because it brings Paste integration and looks more like what people have in mind for CherryPy 3.0. But, I want to be sure about how well it’s going to work with things we’ve got running now and different approaches to declaring multiple apps.

Announcing The Develix TurboGears Bug Bounty

by Kevin Dangoor

Thanks to a generous offer from Cliff Wells, I’m pleased to announce the Develix TurboGears Bug Bounty. Develix will provide a year of free hosting for the people who help close these TurboGears tickets to get 0.9 out the door quicker. We’ve had many great contributions so far, and it’s nice that Develix wants to help those who are helping the project.
