Drop README.pyramid.rst file It has been kept since 3.24 when we merged pyramid-cubicweb and cubicweb-pyramid repositories into cubicweb's one waiting for someone to move the information in some canonical place but this never happened and this information is probably not so useful or already existing elsewhere. So just drop the file.

-pyramid_cubicweb_ is one specific way of integrating CubicWeb_ with a
-Pyramid_ web application.
-
-Features
-========
-
-* provides a default route that let a cubicweb instance handle the request.
-
-Usage
-=====
-
-To use, install ``pyramid_cubicweb`` in your python environment, and
-then include_ the package::
-
-    config.include('pyramid_cubicweb')
-
-    
-Configuration
-=============
-
-Requires the following `INI setting / environment variable`_:
-
-* `cubicweb.instance` / `CW_INSTANCE`: the cubicweb instance name
-
-Authentication cookies
-----------------------
-
-When using the `pyramid_cubicweb.auth` (CubicWeb AuthTkt
-authentication policy), which is the default in most cases, you may
-have to configure the behaviour of these authentication policies using
-standard's Pyramid configuration. You may want to configure in your
-``pyramid.ini``:
-
-:Session Authentication:
-
-    This is a `AuthTktAuthenticationPolicy`_ so you may overwrite default
-    configuration values by adding configuration entries using the prefix
-    ``cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session``. Default values are:
-
-    ::
-
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.hashalg = sha512
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.cookie_name = auth_tkt
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.timeout = 1200
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.reissue_time = 120
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.http_only = True
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.secure = True
-
-
-:Persistent Authentication:
-
-    This is also a `AuthTktAuthenticationPolicy`_. It is used when persistent
-    sessions are activated (typically when using the cubicweb-rememberme_
-    cube). You may overwrite default configuration values by adding
-    configuration entries using the prefix
-    ``cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent``. Default values are:
-
-    ::
-
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent.hashalg = sha512
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent.cookie_name = pauth_tkt
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent.max_age = 3600*24*30
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent.reissue_time = 3600*24
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent.http_only = True
-        cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent.secure = True
-
-
-.. Warning:: Legacy timeout values from the instance's
-             ``all-in-one.conf`` are **not** used at all (``
-             http-session-time`` and ``cleanup-session-time``)
-

-``docs`` directory of the source code).

-Command
-=======
-
-Summary
--------
-
-Add the 'pyramid' command to cubicweb-ctl".
-
-This cube also add a ``CWSession`` entity type so that sessions can be
-stored in the database, which allows to run a Cubicweb instance
-without having to set up a session storage (like redis or memcache)
-solution.
-
-However, for production systems, it is greatly advised to use such a
-storage solution for the sessions.
-
-The handling of the sessions is made by pyramid (see the
-`pyramid's documentation on sessions`_ for more details).
-
-For example, to set up a redis based session storage, you need the
-`pyramid-redis-session`_ package, then you must configure pyramid to
-use this backend, by configuring the ``pyramid.ini`` file in the instance's
-config directory (near the ``all-in-one.conf`` file):
-
-
-.. code-block:: ini
-
-   [main]
-   cubicweb.defaults = no # we do not want to load the default cw session handling
-
-   cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.secret = <secret1>
-   cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent.secret = <secret2>
-   cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.secure = yes
-   cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent.secure = yes
-
-   redis.sessions.secret = <secret3>
-   redis.sessions.prefix = <my-app>:
-
-   redis.sessions.url = redis://localhost:6379/0
-
-   pyramid.includes =
-           pyramid_redis_sessions
-           pyramid_cubicweb.auth
-           pyramid_cubicweb.login
-
-
-See the documentation of `Pyramid Cubicweb`_ for more details.
-
-.. Warning:: If you want to be able to log in a CubicWeb application
-             served by pyramid on a unsecured stream (typically when
-             you start an instance in dev mode using a simple
-             ``cubicweb-ctl pyramid -D -linfo myinstance``), you
-             **must** set ``cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.secure`` to
-             ``no``.
-
-Secrets
-~~~~~~~
-
-There are a number of secrets to configure in ``pyramid.ini``. They
-should be different one from each other, as explained in `Pyramid's
-documentation`_.
-
-For the record:
-
-:cubicweb.session.secret: This secret is used to encrypt the session's
-   data ID (data themselved are stored in the backend, database or
-   redis) when using the integrated (``CWSession`` based) session data
-   storage.
-
-:redis.session.secret: This secret is used to encrypt the session's
-   data ID (data themselved are stored in the backend, database or
-   redis) when using redis as backend.
-
-:cubicweb.auth.authtkt.session.secret: This secret is used to encrypt
-   the authentication cookie.
-
-:cubicweb.auth.authtkt.persistent.secret: This secret is used to
-   encrypt the persistent authentication cookie.
