Correct, hence my call for more core devs to chime in. I understand a default position of skepticism from Alex/Russ. It doesn't sound like anybody tried to approach this subject with the requisite amount of professional rigor, or maybe it was one of those things that stayed low on the priority list because nobody demonstrated sufficient critical mass/interest. I suspect that now might be the right time to give some attention to this part of the framework. Part of allaying the concerns of the core devs is demonstrating that we care enough about this to not lose interest when a core dev says "meh". I'm not advocating harassing the devs, but I do think that doing a little speculative homework and coming up with a rough plan will go a long way towards demonstrating that this isn't a fickle flight of fancy, but something we really think deserves consideration. I'm hoping that Alex/Russ will warm to the idea once a little meat is hanging on the bones of the thing. -I -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
