I accidentally implemented it right after Debconf, as I needed to give a talk about contributors.debian.org for Froscon and I decided that rather than say in a slide that this could happen in the future, it would have looked nicer to say in the slide that this had already happened: https://contributors.debian.org/contributors/mia It could use improvements, as you say, ot make performance better. For example, caching the results of the request to nm.debian.org, maybe just using Django's cache framework: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/topics/cache/ The cache framework can also be applied to just the view, and it'll take care of expiration and everything. Would you like to give that a try? Enrico -- GPG key: 4096R/E7AD5568 2009-05-08 Enrico Zini <enr...@enricozini.org>
