Let me also just say, on the topic of Grapelli: I think Grapelli is a really great re-skinning of the current admin interface, with a few IxD improvements. It's really nicely done, and in my opinion is a significant improvement over what we have now.
But If I ever were to put together a proposal for the design of the admin interface, I would propose not just changing the visual aesthetic. I'd propose starting over, from the group-up, and re- thinking the entire way the admin interface works and how people interact with it. As Luke said, this would entail a great deal of backwards-compatibility issues. I have no disillusions about that -- it's why I laughed off the suggestion this could land in 1.2 or 1.3. If the core developers take is "sorry, we can't do anything that complex, ever, because we are too concerned about backwards compatibility," then just say so, and I'll stop worrying about Django iteself and consider getting a team together to create the admin interface I want as a standalone app (although I admit, the thought of going to all that work with no chance of it ever being considered for core is a depressing one). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
