twisted.web will not be included. There will be two downloads ("Twisted
Web 1 - Deprecated", "Twisted Web 2"). Most people will not download the
first ever. The first will likely not have new releases unless we fine
security issues. Moving it to branch and only doing releases from there
may be fine (if our release infrastructure is up to it!) but I still
think newweb should be twisted.web2.


Summary:

1. twisted.web2 remains web2.
2. Move twisted.web (and any other security bugfix only packages, I
guess) to a "deprecated" branch.

Yes? No?

If yes, that just leaves the nevow/twisted.web2 merger question, which
should probably be done on twisted-web mailing list.
