"std" changed to "tg" in templates + Rad status

[Kevin Dangoor]

I've just committed Michele's patch to change the "std" standard
variable holder to "tg" in templates. std should still work, but there
will be deprecation warnings if you use it.

Also an update on Rad (0.9a1): I'm going to go through the pending
patches now to see if there's anything else I want to take right now.
Otherwise, Rad is all set and just needs a little additional work on
the preview site before I'll tag it and release it. Fingers crossed
that I'll be able to do so before my flight to Dallas.

Will, e.g., tg.url perform exactly like std.url? 'cause I've found out that
it doesn't give me full URL like in turbogears.url in Python code...

essentially, tg = std + a DeprecationWarning. tg.url == turbogears.url
(that's how it's defined).

That reminds me... will there be a video of your talk on TG at PyCon?

That would be really helpful to popularizing TG and helping people to learn it.

Wish I could be there...

Mark's talk is actually the one that would help people learn
TurboGears. My talk is more usability oriented. I've actually recorded
a screencast version of my talk already, but I won't post it until
after I give it live on Sunday :)

Cool, looking forward to it. So ahh, then, is somebody taping Mark's?

[Richard Standbrook]

I *think* there are going to be podcasts of some of PyCon.

I'll try to get some screencast, podcast, or something together if the
PyCon people don't do it.

Regarding Jorge problem, I was wondering, is turbogears.url able to
find the RootController when called from inside a template?

Ciao

Yep. That code works at the request level, so it should be able to
find the RootController even in templates.
