#3591 - Custom app_label in Django 1.2?

2010-02-04 Thread Adam Nelson
I don't suppose there's any way to get the patches from ticket #3591 into Django 1.2? If not, can it be marked as definitively not in 1.2 so I can roll a custom solution for myself? It's always hard to tell from the ticket details what stage tickets like that are in. Thanks, Adam -- You receiv

After reading through this entire thread it seems that there are a few points to be consolidated: 1. DVCS concerns should be pushed to 1.4+ and in the meantime, mirrors are fine. 2. The management of the current Trac system has organizational issues - i.e. many people don't know who committers are

Re: Decision required: PostgreSQL minimum versions

2010-06-10 Thread Adam Nelson
I agree with Simon, Jerome et al. Django 1.3 should feel free to go to 8.3 as a minimum Postgres if there are db backend changes that could take advantage of those versions' capabilities. Ubuntu Hardy (the previous LTS) uses Postgres 8.3 and RHEL 5.5 uses 8.4. It really seems to me that the Djan

After further review, I did find some webhosts that are still using the MySQL 4 series which would be restrictive for some Django 1.0 users. MySQL 4.1 might be a better minimum. http://mediatemple.net/webhosting/gs/faq.php -Adam On Oct 28, 12:29 pm, Adam Nelson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Henk, I think the best solution is to: A) Do a patch that defaults to the existing functionality and allows for customization (i.e. the ability to pass characters that would go into the regex). And B) Start a ticket and thread to change the title method for Python on the Python developer's grou

Actually, this is a typical URL from Google: 1. Search "django models" 2. Get http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/instances/?from=olddocs IMHO, the correct solution is an actual 301 (permanent) redirect to take Google and others where the "current" URL of the page is. Unfortunately

Re: order_by with distinct behavior in orm

2008-11-20 Thread Adam Nelson
A way that might satisfy everybody is to use GROUP BY() and drop DISTINCT. That's a more robust method anyway. So, for a distinct, instead of: SELECT DISTINCT name, (SUBSTRING(name, 1, 3)) AS short_name FROM thing WHERE is_ok = 1 /* Which produces the incorrect values stated above */ Use: SEL
