My opposition to sessions was at the xmlrpc layer. I'm fine with sessions on the web side, and I believe we already do that to track searches and do paging. What I did not want to do is to keep track of sessions at the xmlrpc layer. We have the xedit api that allows a user of the xmlrpc api to make specific changes to objects instead of saving the whole object. I'd much prefer to see the web interface use that instead. I'm not a very good with django, I'd love to see a patch to fix this. -- Scott Henson Red Hat CIS Operator WVU Alum BSAE/BSME
