I've had some more time to continue working with Django and just updated my RSS feed using the new Syndication Framework (which is very clean, might I add).
I'm also working on a very simple gallery application to use for my portfolio. The current Gallery works, but it's gotten too cluttered with miscellaneous stuff. I wouldn't put a link to that site on my resume, for instance. Instead, I'll have a separate area to show my "best" photos, soon. I've made a lot of progress and really just have to rescan/re-edit my pictures and upload them. The site makes thumbnails automatically using PIL, which was a relatively easy feature to add. I have had some issues with mod_python reloading (or more often -- not reloading code), and debugging can be a pain. But I also know that my deployment strategy is very inefficient: since I don't have a matching django/apache/mod_python/mysql setup on my mac mini, I've been making small changes and
svn committing them to the server to test each piece. It'd be better if I developed everything locally and committed when I'm done...

yeah, so why don't you test locally before committing?

Hey, that's weird. For some reason, I thought comments had to be approved before they're visible. I guess not. The problem must've been that pages expire after 10 minutes, so a new comment wouldn't be visible until then.
Anyway, a crapbox sounds so enticing, but I don't know if this apartment's electrical system could take it...
