I like the concept of this, because it's something I've often wanted myself. But I want to bring up a couple of points: 1) Some websites rely on the obscurity of some of their URLs as an additional security measure (i.e. have the admin at something other than /admin/). This is admittedly not a great measure, since a persistent attackers will probably get around it. But the key would be a way to manage which patterns get included in the javascript catalog, possibly even having it configurable at the the view level so that some templates can request a different subset of the patterns to others. 2) It'd be nice if it could be integrated with internationalisation, so that if you're using Django's i18n_patterns, the view automatically fills in the country segment based on the request's locale. Much like the translation string view only returns the strings for the request's language. Andy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
