Hi Malcolm Aside from the BIGINT patch (which still hasn't been applied) I haven't done much hacking on Django internals so it is not so trivial for me. :-) I have been reading through ModPythonRequest, HttpRequest and http://www.b-list.org/weblog/2006/jun/13/how-django-processes-request/ and think I have almost got a handle on it. Do you think you will have a chance to look at this soon or should I try to patch it myself?
