The Fedora Project hasa bunch of G1 projects and a few TG2 projects.

TG1:
https://fedorahosted.org/packagedb
https://fedorahosted.org/bodhi
https://fedorahosted.org/fas
https://fedorahosted.org/mirrormanager
https://fedorahosted.org/elections

TG2:
https://fedorahosted.org/moksha
https://fedorahosted.org/fedoracommunity

Eventually we'll be migrating our TG1 apps to TG2 but right now we're still
porting our support libraries over.

There's MapFish - but I'm not clear if it is a TG project or just a Pylons project. There are two places to get it from and I'm not sure what the differences are.

http://mapfish.org/

vs

http://www.turbogears.org/2.0/docs/main/Extensions/index.html#geo

I'd like to know the differences between these two things that sort of appear to be "the same". I'm about to kick off a GEO oriented project and have been looking for a suitable base. I've already spent a lot of time with geodjango and find that django overall leaves me cold.

Mapfish is a pylons based framework for building
geographic applications. It provides a rest api and
uses sqlalchemy custom type (geometry)
to persist geo objects in a postgis database.

tgext.geo on the other hand is a gis extension specifically
for TG2 applications. It makes it easy to integrate MapFish
or other python gis libraries such as FeatureServer
and TileCache into a TG2 app.

So, use tgext.geo only if you want to develop a TG2 app.
If you are starting a new app and you are fine with Pylons,
you could use MapFish.

However, if you decide to build a TG2 app and use tgext.geo,
you could choose between MapFish and FeatureServer.

I advise you go through the features offered by MapFish and
FeatureServer to see how they compare and which one suits
your needs better.
