Hi,

I intend to use Django for a project that involves presenting some
information comming from an external system.

In this particular case, I need to hit a URL that will give me back
some XML. I need to process the XML and put it in data structures that
I want to present with Django.

Since the fetching and processing of XML can take more than a few
seconds, I don't want to have to do it every time a page is fetched on
the Django website. I would like to be able to check the external XML
every minute or so and update my data structures at that moment.

What would be the "canonical" approach to do this kind of thing in
Django? Are threads safe to use with Django or can they present
problems?

Thanks,

Paul

PS: I should note that I am a beginner with Django, in case anyone
wonders.
