The reason for this exercise is to produce suitable output for the jquery plugin datatables. I am trying to use the following code http://rus.hk/django-data-parser-for-jquery-datatable/
There are no problems until I include a datetime field. Then 'datatabilize' fails because it cannot jsonify a datetime object. Probably the easiest solution is to avoid this generic utility function and build my own?
