Re: outdated django book

Ah yes, I should have clarified that in my response. @knowledge_seeker, if you'll check your python code with a tool like pyflakes it will tell you when you're referencing modules that have not been imported (as well as many other common errors). I use the pyflakes for vim plugin and it saves me from a ton of headaches.

Which, of course, is nothing to do with Django versions, and was true even when the Django book was new.

You need to import User from django.contrib.auth.models and login_required from django.contrib.auth.decorators. Hope this helps.
