As Sam Lai said it is a Content Delivery Network. Django has always recommended you serve your Javascript, Image and CSS files, what are commonly known as assets, statically (eg not processed though a django view). A CDN it one step further along in the process for speeding up access to your static assets. I would guess 90% of the people who use django do not need a CDN, none of the sites I currently manage do, but a few do and some people like to design for expansion in mind, so I figured a tool to make using a CDN with django a little easier would be interesting to write as well as useful to those few. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
