Thank you for your answer. It is to much information for me and I am not sure whether I understand it correctly :)
So basically you create for each application a corresponding permission which looks something like 'use_appname'. If the user wants to access 'appname' application, he has to have 'use_appname' permission. And when these permissions are being created? When starting a new application? (./manage.py startapp appname) And Django just knows that permission named use_appname belongs to 'appname'? It's a part of core? Sorry for my dumb question, I just don't know much yet about how does Django work under the hood. Btw I found also this <http://onecreativeblog.com/post/59051248/django- login-required-middleware> which could also solve my problem. It wouldn't be difficult to modify the code in order to add support for groups.
