Keep twiddling with admin to satisfy their needs. In no time they'll be hooked. It is just marketing - and you have a great product to market. I have client where I did this - they have a shiny php server for their needs, i built a django app for them. Time came when they wanted the app on their server - six months of data already on my 'test' server. Their guy said he would add python and postgresql for 1000 euro per year. They went and bought a webfaction account for 10 Euro per month. Webfaction django hosting rocks. -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
