IIRC, I tried to contact Bob about joining pkg-turbogears lots of time
ago, and end up hijacking some of the work because he seemed to be MIA,
so I'd say that pkg-turbogears pretty much doesn't exist.
Some months ago I tried to package turbogears 2, and found that its
usage of setuptools was far more idiotic than I could bear, and decided
using CherryPy alone, with SQLAlchemy was more like it for me =/.
Here is where I put my preliminary work at, as far as I remember:

Go ahead, in my opinion =). And thanks for packaging TG2! Despite its
setuptools usage being somewhat dumb, I too prefer it over django for a
variety of reasons.
See you,
