Jesse is right about modules vs applications but turbogears is
definitely a module so I would argue that TurboGears was misnamed when
it got in. You use TurboGears in you website using:
import turbogears
Thus its a module with lowercase import name so it should be named:
python-turbogears
That was my source of confusion, yes. On the other hand, both
TurboGears and Django provide scripts for managing your web
application, and in fact the interaction between the developer and the
framework is through these scripts, so perhaps they can be considered
applications?
