We used django to implement a SAML 2.0 compliant SSO identity provider, which then provides federated logins and personal data across our entire range of web products, ranging from django based websites which do statistical report generation, to C++ applications written as apache modules with our own web framework, also doing report generation. Django is just another web framework, what you do with it is up to you. Cheers Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
