There is a django.views.static module that has a "serve" view function that can be used for serving static files from a directory. So no need to send in a patch ;-) (I think this static view should be listed more prominently in the documentation and tutorial, even though it's not meant to be used for production use - the how-to-serve-static-files question is quite common with newbies, and all of them want to write their own ;-) ) bye, Georg
