but by the same token, ive not seen a mailing list that hasn't made me want to gouge my own eyes out. its not a great place for reading code is it? you can't do a [code] [/code] to isolate an example on it. the point im trying to make is that your choice isn't necessarily my choice. who is right? (nobody, but then you know that).
ASIDE: you'd think there'd be a djangonaut smart enough to amend the existing forum code im sure i've seen (in pinax maybe) to add in a [stacktrace][/stacktrace] and then start a community helpsite. don't worry, i fully understand that the ethos exists within django that the tools are there and we can if we feel we need to go out there and do it. im not sure im ready yet, but maybe in time. for now i'll cope with the google groups. also to pick up on another point mentioend in here that there are a lot of blogs. there are. tons. bloody loads and loads of blogs, all with old outdated code on. and not many people blogging point out what version they are running when blogging. also check stack overflow out. lots of django examples on there, hardly any of which are moderated by a community who know the code inside out, and again, nobody pointing out what version of django they've copied and pasted their supposedly fix all code from. all im doig here is pointing out that it is hard to find working examples of code on the web for many reasons. the documentation is great, but it doesn't go far enough sometimes. IMO.
