It might be worth adding that this approach works for Django because
development takes place on branches not the trunk. Other open source
projects may use the trunk for development, in which case what people
are saying about how often they update Django won't apply to those
projects.

expected output.
Well, it turned out the lack of results (doesn't work = no results at
all) was a snafu on the templating side but I appreciate your SQL

There's another query I want to do that I can't seem to wrap my head
around at the moment:
Say I have a model where Things have Properties each of a particular
PropertyType. So
class Property(models.Model):
thing = models.ForeignKey(Thing)
property_type = models.ForeignKey(P
I have a model where each Blah can come from one or more Sources.
i.e. I have:
class Blah(models.Model):
...
sources = models.ManyToManyField(Source)
The query I want to perform is to find all the Blahs that come from
sources 1 or 2 but not sources 3 or 4.
My first attempt was:
make sure that when Friendship(A, B) is created,
Friendship(B, A) is done so automatically. And similarly if Friendship
(A, B) is deleted, delete the corresponding reversal. I'm just
wondering the recommended way to do that.

Actually, one problem with this is the first / last page will get a

I notice _get_next_or_previous_by_FIELD just catches an IndexError so
I guess I'll do the same.

My point is that you just need an iterable. Both lists and QuerySets
meet this requirement.
There is no casting in Python. You don't need to "cast" a QuerySet to
a list.

A number of sites I'm working on will optionally notify users of
certain events via email. Think of the email you get from a social
networking site when someone wants to add you as a friend. Or forum
software that emails subscribers to a thread when there's been a new
post. I also have the
parate apps and
make them available open source.

Has anyone give much thought to building a "Cheeseshop" for reusable
Django apps?
I have a bunch of ideas but want to check what's been done already.
I'm thinking it could be a two-tiered catalog: one tier accepting all
submissions, the other tier being more constrained to apps that

They need to be in INSTALLED_APPS for syncdb to pick up the models
and make any necessary additions to the database.
There may be other uses as well (contrib.admin might use it too, for
example) but I'm not sure.

I've implemented a very quick "announcement" feed as coded below.
This meets my current need of adding news items in the admin and
having an Atom feed for them (there are also HTML views but that's
irrelevant to my question).
However, I'd like my feed to be full content. Given what I have

I just got an unhandled exception error on my production site but
didn't receive an email.
I have ADMINS set and django in general has no problem emailing
(account activation works fine).
Is there something else I need to do to get error emails?

Sounds like one is a Unicode object and the other an encoded string
(maybe UTF-8 or Latin-1).
