On this point, I'd like to draw attention to my own set of class-based views which provide formsets functionality, mimicking the APIs of the existing CBVs as closely as possible. The ultimate goal was to attempt to reimplement some of Django's admin as a proof-of-concept. It doesn't support any higher-level functionality like fieldsets, filtering and sorting, and there's an issue with pagination (see this ticket: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/16432), but it's fairly feature-complete and could be a good starting point. - Andrew -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
