Yashh is helping me out by beat testing Savoy, and he’s posted some initial thoughts on his blog. He includes a diagram of the database structure (or, most of it, anyway), which will give you a good idea of the kinds of apps Savoy has in place, and explains a bit about how it’s all put together.
One note: Yashh talks about the savoy.contrib.comments app, which I write before the new django.contrib.comments app was released. I’ve debated back and forth about whether to ditch savoy.contrib.comments. It includes some functionality that django.contrib.comments doesn’t (blacklists, whitelists, akismet, etc.), but I’m not sure I really want to maintain it, now that django.contrib.comments doesn’t suck. Obviously, you can always simple choose to use django.contrib.comments instead of savoy.contrib.comments, even if both are in place (in fact, I’m doing that on a client site we’re working on now). What do you think? Is a more advanced comments app worth maintaining now that django.contrib.comments is 100 time less sucky? Visit site »
