Hi,

Did you actually manage to get any of those sites to work? (and if yes,which
one?)

As far as I can tell they are for
- older versions of django
- miss basic files (settings.py?) of instructions how to get things to work
- or generate bundles of errors often due to being an old version of missing
all kinds of undocumented dependancies.

Al in all after trying to get some 15 sites running I can only conclude that
the site isuseless for finding a site to learn from. As a promotional site
it's fine of course although it could use a repeating recheck of the sites
mentioned as many seemed to have disappeared of use other CMS'es or
frameworks.


Anyhow, I'm still searching for the sourcecode for a simple basic site with a
few static pages, maybe a small app. Not to many obscure external dependancies
and using the default django 1.3 environment (eg. the default settings.py
etc.)

I just need something to start hacking around in and the tutorial on the
django site doesn't offer that. The webmonkey tutorial is outdated as are the
other tutorials I've found.

Anyone?

Thanks!
