Announcing TurboGears 2.2.0!

[Michael Pedersen]

That's right, we finally did it! It's up right now, and if you follow
the directions on http://www.turbogears.org/ you'll get 2.2.0.

I'd like to take a minute to thank Alessandro Molina in particular. I
did what support I could, but this release really belongs to him.
Please pass along congratulations and thanks to him. And if there's
bugs, I'll take the blame myself for not doing more to help.

The full changelog is below.

Important Commit Messages:

* Fix template engine extension collision in tw2.core >= 2.1
* Permit TGController subclasses to keep the decorations made on the
parent class methods around
* Support repoze.who v2
* New auth configuration layer that doesn't require repoze.what
anymore while still being compatible
* Support validation dict using TW2 validators and make validation
less dependant from FormEncode
* Always prefer default renderer when multiple engines are registered
for the same content_type
* Fix empty documentation for some decorators
* Remove url kwargs which were marked for removal in 2.2
* Remove legacy renderers support
* Disable AuthMetadataProvider when is None
* Improved kajiki loader to solve some issues with py:extends
* use .jinja extension for jinja templates by default
* On Mako when using file loader templates where reloaded using the
auto_reload_templates option, while when using dotted loader the
mako.reloadfromdisk option was used. Merge the two options in
auto_reload_templates as all the other templates engines use this
one
* __before__ and __after__ were renamed to _before and _after
* Expose render call as a public api with render_template name
* Create sqla module for sqlalchemy related things and add
BalancedSession for master/slave load balancing

congratulations on the release guys. i see the dispatch mechanism is moved to crank so does this mean 2.2 is without pylons?

2.2 is still Pylons based.
Pylons actually didn't provide dispatch in TurboGears, the pylons
dispatch was overwritten inside TurboGears to perform object dispatch.
Now the TurboGears custom object dispatch got replaced by crank which
has many performance improvements when compared with the old dispatch
system. The two are compatible as crank was actually a fork of the TG
dispatch system.
