 Hey guys, I heard there was this app called [Doodle](http://www.doodle.com/main.html). It's closed source. Let's make an open-source Doodle killer and call it Clockworks!

+### What to do?
+
+* Configure the default TurboGears scaffolding
+* Work through the [TurboGears tutorial](http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/Wiki20/Page1) (the tutorial seems to focus on SQLObject, which is not necessarily the best thing. Maybe someone can find some better docs?)
+* Setup database configuration and installer (an auxiliary issue is the presence of an installer for people). Also, make sure SQLAlchemy is being used
+* Learn SQLAlchemy
+* Make sure the default scaffolding works on Scripts (this includes running TurboGears as CGI). Any work done here should be considered for a TurboGears auto-installer, the equivalent of tgsetup) (**ezyang**)
+* Write a .gitignore file for generated/not versionable items
+* Get friendly URLs working
+* Learn TurboGear's templating interface (would like XSLT, but I don't think anyone else will like that)
+* Setup a zephyrbot that watches the repository (**pbaranay**)
+

 ### Architecture
 
 * Python and Turbogears
 * Git repository
 * Use 15 minute timeslices to simplify interface (?)
