It would be nice to have a Requirements note for nevow somewhere on http://stewstuff.com/doc/nevow.xhtml or perhaps a README on the CVS nevow dir, so newbies can check it out more easily.
I have been planning on packaging a standalone distro of nevow. Radix has kindly offered to help in this effort, as I know nothing about distutils or any of the issues related to actually producing usable tarballs of python software. I'd like to do this sometime within the next few weeks. One of the things I have been thinking about doing before doing a standalone distribution is removing the dependency on twisted. I have been contemplating using PyProtocols for the adaption machinery, and writing a simple CGI renderer to replace the ones that are twisted-web aware. However, while I want to pursue this goal eventually to ensure that nevow has as few dependency abstraction violations as possible, it probably won't happen right away, so I probably shouldn't do it for the first standalone release. Radix, what are your thoughts about timing? dp
