In general I agree with the above. That said, if you think what you want to do is out of Django's core problem domain, then it's not so good to be in a high pressure situation and suddenly realize that what you need to do is going to be *really* hard. I found that to be the case with Django's admin interface. ( Which is really the main selling point of Django ). Cusomizing it as is intended by the designers is easy. But if you decide you need to do something weird, hacking on that is not pretty. iain --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
