There are several ways to receive help when you're stuck. Whether you need help with TurboGears or a component within, like SQLObject or Kid, you can find a resource here.

Mailing Lists

Mailing lists are a great way to talk about what's happening with TurboGears, though they also serve as a great place to request help from experienced individuals. Here is a table of mailing lists for TurboGears and its components.

Please note that for some of these lists, messages from new members are moderated to reduce spam. So if you post a message and it does not appear on the list immediatley, please wait a few hours before resending it, since it is probably just waiting to be approved by a moderator.
