#7198 - Better error message when app is missing models.py

Not sure why this particular ticket is marked as DDN, as it seems like a no-brainer. The patch provides a more clear error message when a user is attempting to load an app which doesn't have a models.py. https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/7198 https://github.com/django/django/pull/39 Happy to

Re: Allow slug to be prepopulated on edit

I don't believe there is. Historically, this is there because slug fields usually make their way to be used for URLs. As such, changing the title of an object shouldn't adjust its URL as that can be bad for SEO and folks who might have bookmarked it. You can, however, add your own javascript via

This seems applicable to dcramer's django-db-log. http://github.com/dcramer/django-db-log This might also dovetail with logging support which may make it into 1.3, so it might be worth looping in the folks involved in that. -justin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to

Re: contrib.Auth

To add another point, this doesn't mean that the day 1.2 hits release that everyone is gung-ho on 1.3. If past releases are any indication, there is usually a refactory period of a few weeks when everyone is basking in post-release bliss. -justin On Mon, Feb 8, 2010 at 6:46 PM, Karen Tracey

Just to hit on another point that might have been missed by Alex's -0/1 is that we don't have someone to pick the positions. When evaluating meritocracy, we've traditionally had someone who was able to do the selection. Some number of Jacob / Simon / Adrian / other commiter has effectively vetted

Re: "Delete selected objects" in admin batch edit

It would seem to me that the method we're using for context_processors might be a good one. A list of things available by default, then you can override it in settings.py in order to provide different ones or remove some of the defaults. I think it could very well. Thoughts? -justin -- Justin

Re: Perl port of the django template system.

I find it interesting that no one has brought up jinja. They did something that follows django's template syntax, and have still built up a community. There is also the ruby version which is called liquid iirc that borrows heavily from django's syntax. Basically, it doesn't need django in
