Re: Anyone want to take over maintaining Instant Django?
Hi, Whatever happened to this? @sidmitra - did you manage to take over maintainership of this project? If not, @cjl - do you still have the scripts for this?

I would be quite interested. I use instant django so might work out for me. Thanos On Jul 14, 2010, at 2:48 PM, cjlwrote: Thanks for the replies.

Re: Anyone want to take over maintaining Instant Django?
Hello Cjl, I can host it for you and spend some time keeping it up to date. I have built windows installers before so I could probably fix the installer issues.

Re: Anyone want to take over maintaining Instant Django?
Hi, I wouldn't mind taking it on. I can host it on my hosting server and maintain your child for you. Do let me know and we can exchange the information.I am an eager new learner of django but am creating an enterprise level application for a university at the moment and will get up to speed rather fast.

Re: Anyone want to take over maintaining Instant Django?
Hi there. While I cannot extend on it for a while yet, I have a few thoughts on why one would keep this site "alive". Please email me some stats like total running costs, average monthly hits? Would be nice to see Google Analytics stats. Thanks.

Anyone want to take over maintaining Instant Django?
Djangoholics: I no longer have the time or interest to maintain my little project: http://www.instantdjango.com If anyone would like to take over the project, I would gladly give it away. Right now it costs a few dollars in shared hosting a month, and a few more dollars for the downloads I host with AWS. If you take over the project I will give you the domain, but I'm not going to pay the hosting. I'll also give you my 'build' script, but it no longer works correctly because the Python core devs broke the Windows installer, and mocked me when I reported the bug. The project website gets a hundred or so hits a day, and several thousand downloads a month. It also ranks highly for a few different google searches related to Django. Let me know if you have any interest. It wouldn't take much effort to maintain, I just can't do it anymore. -cjl -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
