As often happens, writing the questions gave me the answer at least to the main problem if not to the single questions on threading.
I ended up writing (interactively) a variable in django.conf.settings and modified get user to test for INTERACTIVE_USER if it does not find any user defined in the thread. I'd like to make this happen only if I'm running in the interactive shell or the development server. How can I test this? sandro *:-) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
