#1963 closed enhancement

replace nevow with twisted.web.template — at Version 5

Reported by: zooko Owned by: daira
Priority: normal Milestone: eventually
Component: code-frontend-web Version: 1.10.0

Description (last modified by daira)

Users still occasionally have problems with the nevow dependency:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/nevow/+bug/812537 (see #2032)

Also, Nevow is unmaintained, or barely maintained. But it turns out (thanks to Daira for pointing this out to me) that twisted.web.template is the successor to nevow!

So, we can reduce our dependencies by one, by using twisted.web.template instead of Nevow!

I've filed #2032 specifically for the installation issue, which I consider separate from this dependency issue.
