Hi Mike, revsys/django-fack is a reasonably recent fork of howiworkdaily/django-faq, with some subsequent divergence between the two code bases on both sides. Both projects' primary developers are well-respected members of the Django community. In fact, the primary developer of revsys/django-fack is Jacob Kaplan-Moss, co-BDFL of Django itself. At the same time, he respected Kevin Fricovsky's work enough to both submit fixes *and* then fork it, rather than write from scratch.
I have used Kevin's app in a site, and it does what it says on the tin. I'm guessing about this, but since Jacob released django-fack under his company's github account (RevSys), chances are the cleanup work was done for a client, which means that django-fack is very likely in production somewhere. Either fork will serve well enough, though you don't mention any specific requirements that could be addressed. Were I to need an app for FAQs in a new project, I'd probably use django-fack at this point, as the code base is a little cleaner. Hope that helps, ---Peter Herndon On Nov 5, 2011, at 12:37 PM, Mike wrote: > I've been searching for a FAQ app for Django and found several but no > commentary as to which is best and still maintained, etc. > > This group looks to have mentioned the subject last in 2006 and refers > to this: > > http://simon.net.nz/articles/simple-faq-application-for-django/&usg=AFQjCNFwcCQGBUOKI_lMzqUc3gVR56Oesg > > In my googling I've found these: > > https://github.com/revsys/django-fack > https://github.com/howiworkdaily/django-faq > https://github.com/benspaulding/django-faq > http://code.google.com/p/django-generic-faq/ > > Can anyone provide some recommendations? > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Django users" group. > To post to this group, send email to django-users@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > django-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/django-users?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
