Comment on Building a full Django project, starting with a single fileparent

Comments

I would be interested to hear your thoughts on why this never ended up going anywhere? (Or did it go somewhere ?)

As a Django user that shares your frustrations with settings.py, I wish this had panned out.

I got very busy at work, then quit to go on honeymoon, then accidentally started a startup!

I wasn't particularly good at sticking with open source projects like this and pushing them forwards back in 2009. I've since learned how to do that but it took me another decade to get there.

Is this something you think you would ever come back to?

Honestly no - not at this point. I have too many other projects on the go. I'd love to see the Django community take this on generally - there are a bunch of people interested in it, hopefully that result in a long-term stable project around the idea.
