Intermediate Turbogears

Have you conquered the basics of Pylons/TurboGears2 (or just taken the morning class)?

Do you want to understand more about how everything works, and how you can go beyond the basics to understand how to customize things?

This class will take you from a basic understanding of how to use the framework, to a clear picture of how the framework pieces are put together.

I will also cover how to create REST+JSON based web services, we'll focus particularly on how all this works with rich javascript based user interfaces, but the techniques should easily apply to Flex, or other "Rich Internet Application" tools.
