I'm thinking of integrating (some) html5boilerplate 2 into tg 2.1
genshi templates, css, js etc.
Is there an effort in that direction already?

Is there anything I should know before I fork tg 2,1.4 from bitbucket?

Is this a desired effort that would eventually enter the main tg
trunk? should I even walk that path?

Give a look at https://bitbucket.org/_amol_/tgquickstart-patches/src

I was an experiment I did for myself some time ago to patch the TG
quickstart in a way I liked it more.
It adds SCSS, Responsive Design Grid and HTML5Boilerplate.

I would be quite glad to see the tg quickstart expanding with
different options, I think we just need to think about how to handle
customizations as the current quickstart is one huge script.

http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/ would make another interesting
quickstart template set.

But yes, we would need to make quickstart more flexible to support
different options and allow orthogonal choices, e.g. select database
backend and template set independently of each other.

btw bootstrap is going to be integrated in html5boilerplate..
but I want to begin with a minor patch, just fixing and modernizing
the genshi templates, js and css

There isn't currently documentation available as there isn't a way to
customize quickstart right now.

If you really want to make it customizable you can clone the devtools:
https://sourceforge.net/p/turbogears2/tg2devtools and play with it
thinking of a way to improve the quickstart flexibility. Probably
adding some hooks or layers applied one after the other is the ways to
go. We didn't discuss the issue in depth so any suggestion or idea is
off course welcome.
