Yes. It is that great. :) It's really interesting that you see that as one of Django's main strengths, as it's something we don't really advertise (but we should!). The software from which Django was extracted -- a news package called Ellington -- was designed to let apps be portable across projects/servers/sites. We wanted to be able to say "Let's reuse this events-calendar thing on Lawrence.com and LJWorld.com, giving them different templates for the different sites, but keeping the same backend code." It's exactly what you're looking for, in that respect. And thanks for indirectly encouraging us to advertise this feature more... It's the main reason I chose to develop my first app in Django, instead of Rails, and from then I've been hooked. -- Ian Holsman [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://economychat.com discussion on the economy and economics in general --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
