Well I'm using django 1.3 and things seemed to work ok, but when I
tried to change permissions I get a 403 error related to the ajax csrf
changes.   I took a look at Luke's django_1.3 branch but couldn't find
the commit where the csrf token was added to all ext ajax calls.   Can
anyone point me in the right direction to make this change?
