Re: new formwizard - how to pass data between forms

I haven't read that particular back ports docs but when I looked at the dev docs for the new form wizard a little while back, I believe that it stores all previous data as hidden fields throughout the process. So I would think form.cleaned_data should contain everything. Hopefully that helps a little :)
