Always against the trunk. Specially because there's no stable release that includes identity yet. > it seems to me like thats the thought process behind a lot of whats in > Identity - its very much tailored to a specific app, and not abstracted > enough into a general app That's weird because Jeff Watkins -- the author of Identity -- don't know anything about my apps and don't even know how many I've written.

Where did you get "9/10" from? This list has more than 1500 users and I haven't seen, for example, 9/10 of them disagreeing with the current implementation.

You don't need to do that if you don't like it. There are docs explaining how to create your own classes and there are options at the configuration files to use them. Just do it (do I have to attribute it to Nike? ;-)) > i just want to make this simple because right now, its not. identity > should be as lightweight as possible then be extended. the current > design basically says "either use this model or learn a whole lot about > our internals to hook your own classes into it". The current design is a suggestion that the author thought would be useful. There are step by step docs showing how to create a new model. You found that you needed to go further to use them? What did you missed from them? The current module is very flexible and allows alternative providers -- for LDAP, SSO, SQL, etc. -- so that it can be used together with other projects or tied together with other technologies. I still believe that you're lacking reading more about how TG work and how each of its parts work. Unfortunately, to get where we are now, there were lots of changes and the development pace was very fast so docs are starting to become available now. The source is your best bet to get up to date docs. This will be changed soon, fortunately. -- Jorge Godoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
