Just looking through DjangoSites.org and Googling around, I'm absolutely puzzled by the lack of Django-based browser games. It is such an idea platform for developing these, yet there are only a few that are actually open to the public (some of which aren't in English, and are thus inaccessible to me). There seem to be a few games out there in French, Chinese, and some other things I don't really recognize ...

I just thought I'd take a moment to give everyone a heads up that Multi-Model Inheritance fixture dumping and loading is now fixed, as per Russ Magee's changeset 7600. This fixes a subtle problem that some of you may have seen in the form of foreign keys pointing to the wrong objects after using loaddata to restore an app.

The "pk" fields (usually 'id') in the serialized dump weren't being loaded correctly ...

Django is able to run on a number of different web servers, databases, and operating systems. This flexibility lends itself to a lot of diversity within the community, but what kind of combinations are the most common?

The developers seem to suggest that Apache2 + mod_python + Postgresql seem to be the recommended setup, but undoubtedly there are lots of others. I've heard mentions of lighttpd, FastCGI, nginx running on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Unix ...

For those reading along elsewhere, I apologize for the incorrect domain on the feed up until now. I forgot to set my Site's domain within the admin interface, meaning everything syndicated pointed to example.com. This has been fixed and won't be an issue in the future.

During the design phase for a color accuracy management system, my company decided to go with a client-server model rather than individual workstations that are more or less independent. The central server would be responsible for recording readings from the clients and doing various calculations on the data. We wanted most of the calculation to happen server-side in order to keep the clients very simple, and ease of communication from client to server was a ...

I have made the source for the CMS/Blog that powers this site available on Google Code in the hopes that someone out there will find it useful. It's not very well commented at this time, but it's fundamentally sound code and serves as a decent example of things. This is mostly to help make it easier for me to track revisions, but there's no harm in GPL'ing it.

The source ...

Under harassment from friends and a professor or two, I finally re-designed my page. You will notice a new look, and some extra functionality floating around. The back-end is now Django instead of static HTML. This will allow me to make some of my tinkerings available for view on here.

Things will be in a state of flux for a while as I get the kinks worked out. If you notice any oddities, feel free ...
