Hi,

I am happy with my models, and I'm fine inserting data, what I would like 
help with is retrieval.

given a single instance of a Studio() I can get 
studio.studiogroup_set.all() which I can then iterate to find the 
individual studios and build my resulting list ensuring no duplicates and 
not 'studio' itself. All this is working in Python:

choice = self.get_object()
others = []
for set in getattr(choice, "%s_set" % choice.groupname.lower()).all():
    for other in getattr(set, choice.view_name()).exclude(pk=choice.pk):
        if other not in others:
            others.append(other)
for other in others:
    print other

but this doesn't seem very elegant and I'm wondering if there's a more 
'django' way of doing this.
