I'm reasonably fluent in SQL, and while I've found Django's ORM is great for basic CRUD operations, I'm having trouble creating joins. For example, I have a three tables, Article, Rating, and User. Rating stores a user's rating of a particular article. I'm trying to create a view that lists artic

The only thing you really /need/ root for is having some web server process (usually Apache or lighttpd, for example) bind to port 80. Everything else can be done without it. In fact, in any typical set up, once port 80 has been bound to you're not running as root any more anyway. --~--~-
