DSE: 2.0.0-RC1 released - now using BSD license
No change in code, just a new license. No new issues has been reported. Will try to add the announced and planned unittests related to SQL injection in a few days, but this version of the source is most likely the same as the forthcoming stable 2.0.0. -

DSE: When in Rome ..... or "What software license should I use?"
So far I've released all my django-apps using the GPL license. This is not by accident. GPL, FSF, RMS and the whole philosophy of free software was and still is important to me. It was the main motivation for my departure from Windows to Linux about 11-12 years ago. After posting a question about what license to choose for my django-apps and seeing the amount of debate it generated I recognize -

DSE - 2000 downloads
I hope to get the last planned unittests in place, mostly related to SQL injection and a few more tests on performance, and then finally release the stable v2.0.0 this weekend or sometime next week. I encourage any user of DSE to go the page for DSE at djangopackages.com and click "Using this". It would be nice to see how many actually use this package and/or find it useful. The number of -
Django Fresh Media
Reusable Django application that helps you to deliver fresh media files, even if their expiry period is really long. To do this, the application provides a template tag that adds a small hash to the URL of each served file. This hash depends on the file metadata or content, so if it is changed, the hash will be changed too. -

django-photofile v.0.2.0 - abstract model for EXIF-metadata extraction
Just released v.0.2.0 of django-photofile, featuring an abstact class handling extraction of EXIF-metadata. Define a model, sublcassing the abstract PhotoMetadata-class like so: from django.db import models from photofile.models import PhotoMetadata class Photo(PhotoMetadata): image = models.ImageField(upload_to=settings.STATIC_DATA) title = models.CharField(max_length=100) def __ -
Django-photofile released
Just released a simple reusable app with a templatetag for thumbnail generation, with support for automatic rotation based on Exif.Orientation. Looked at sorl-thumbnail and friends, but none of them featured automatic rotation based on Exif.Orientation, which is critical for my photo-based projects. http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Django-Photofile/ Released as GPL. Alpha status. Testers and -

DSE: Reality check - a more real-world test case scenario
During the last days I've done extensive testing on DSE, but still in a very artificial test environment; using the in-memory SQLite database provided by the django testing framework. It shows very well the overhead of using the django ORM, but I was expecting things to change when using a proper database. After some discussions on the django users mailing list I got motivated to test DSE in a -
DSE uses 1.8% of the time compared to the Django ORM updating 100.000 records.
Update #2: My latest blog entry shows more realistic performance against a postgresql database. Update: I feel I should clear some clear up some stuff; the tests below run using a memory database, using SQLite. It clearly shows the overhead of using the django orm for tasks like these, but I do believe the difference between DSE and the django orm would be smaller in a world scenario, because -

PyCharm - first impressions
I've been using PyCharm for my django development after I recieved a free open source licence for it based on my work on DSE. I've used free software based editors like Editra so far, but I wanted a visual debugger and the option of running syncdb, the django devserver, and unittests from inside an IDE, spending less time in the shell, more time in the editor. That's what drove me to PyCharm. -
django-follow
Django application to follow anything.
