Django Developers, This is my first post on Django-dev, so I thought I would start with a short introduction.
My name is James Hancock, and I love python. Right now I live in Japan, and am developing an application for managing volunteer english classes throughout the country. (You can see the site at www.goeigo.org.) Obviously, the development is done in Django. As I have been developing the site I have really wished that Django would have one feature. Being able to grant permission to view, update, and create objects based on a subset of the models, rather than giving access to all of them. I don't know if this is correct terminology, but I like to think of it as adding rules to the permissions. So a teacher has permissions to see students, but only on the rule that they are signed up for his class. This would really help my project and I think that it would help others as well. I have a lot of time this summer to really get into coding when I get back to the States, and I was thinking about submitting the idea for a Google Summer of Code project. My questions are. 1. What Experience would I need in order to tackle a feature like this? 2. What is the general feel about the inclusion of a feature like this? Cheers, James Hancock @Andrew Ball I saw you posted something about this a while back and said you have a home grown system to manage this. What kind of functionality has worked for you? I would be very interested to hear how it has worked in the real world for you. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
