Maybe some recipe? > Django has nothing built in for this. There are, instead, multiple different external projects that aim to provide this function. See: http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/a4f1040210d5887f/18d949dc6987ed3a which is the discussion thread associated with the announcement of the last one of these I recall hearing about, and I think it has pointers to where you can find out more about the other ones. Long-term it would be nice if Django incorporated something along these lines in the base, and I believe many of the people involved in these projects want that to happen, but there is work to be done to agree on what features, etc. from each should be supported, and that hasn't been settled yet. In the meantime there are solutions available, you just have to do a bit of research to figure out which of them best meets your needs.
