I have no horse in this race, so I think if our application developers
can chime in and reach a consensus thats good for me. 

it sounds like flask and pyramid might be the way to go, but I'm happy
to go with whatever the consensus is. 

So, for TG1 apps thats: 

mirrormanager
packagedb
fas
elections
bodhi

One thing that might also weigh into this is existing porting work
thats already been done to TG2. Ie, if developers would be willing to
re-target pyramid or would prefer to go to TG2 due to existing work to
move to that.
