Hi all,

I am trying to implement a custom product module, and ideally I would
like to do it via model inheritance à la <a href="http://
thisismedium.com/labs/satchmo-diaries-part-one/">Bob Waycott</a>.
Unfortunately I have hit some snags. Before I go any further, here is
the model..

<pre>
class Ring(Product):
    objects = ProductManager()

    multiplier = models.DecimalField(max_digits=5,decimal_places=3)
    profile_code = models.ForeignKey('Profile')
    metal = models.ForeignKey('Metal')

    def _get_subtype(self):
        return 'Ring'

    def __unicode__(self):
        return u"Ring: %s" % self.name

    class Admin:
        pass

    class Meta:
        verbose_name = _('Ring')
        verbose_name_plural = _('Rings')
</pre>

If I leave off _get_subtypes I get an attribute error, if I leave it
in I blow the stack off with the a max recursion error. It is getting
trapped in the following function call: add_template_context, and the
error is being called on this line "context =
subtype.add_template_context(context, *args, **kwargs)"  (line 1098 in
product/models.py). I have tried to glean an understanding of what the
subtype is used for by going through the code, but I have to admit I'm
stumped as to how to fix the problem.
