Just to clarify: I intend to use a database; I just have some particular ideas about what kinds of things should be kept there. What I'm still wondering about, though, is whether this isn't a common usage model that should be more explicitly supported by the framework (or its docs, if there's _really_ no code you can write to support it)? Call me fastidious, but it just seems like principled development to keep site content that isn't provided by users in revision control along with the code. Otherwise, rolling back to an earlier version of the site is sorta meaningless. Hmm, subversion uses a database. It would be kind of interesting to see a Django-like system built atop something like subversion. User edits could create/edit YAML, for example. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
