You could write a template tag to do it pretty easily, the database
lookup would be
Entry.objects.dates('pub_date', 'month', order='DESC')
And you'd have a list of datetime objects corresponding to all the
months in which there are entries. I think the reason the Django site
doesn't use it is that A) that blog app was probably put together
really quickly, and B) it was put together in the ancient dark ages
before 0.90, when the 'dates' construct wasn't available (that was
added in 0.95), and nobody's ever had the time to go back and fix
that.
