TurboGears as a Twisted WSGI Application (in 125 seconds)

Say you want to have a TurboGears application running inside a Twisted web-server (which lets you mix in all sorts of other protocols).  J.P. has written up a 60-second recipe for getting a WSGI application running inside Twisted.  This post takes you the rest of the way to getting TurboGears 2.1 running inside that ...
