i understand that it's safer to do, but quite ugly in my opinion. why should my code depend on the name of the project, after all.. > > Also, I'm recalling from memory so I could be totally wrong here, but > I kind of remember that you would fetch the related set <snip/> yes, related_name works like that. but it works (and fails) the same way as the "unnamed" reverse-lookup. > I normally look into the tests that come in trunk/tests first.
