This helps, thank you. I didn't know that Model.objects is a Manager. This is not mentioned on http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/models/ I am happy to implement my own class to do what I want. I just want to implement enough of the standard interfaces to allow my app to integrate well into any Django project without requiring special treatment. You might have guessed that I am an absolute greenhorn regarding Django. Right now I am trying to understand enough of how it works under the hood since I want to leave the standard way of doing things.
