Hey.
I know you'd like the perms branch merged into master. Here's what would be helpful:
- Try it. Work with it in its current state and document any trouble you have. If there is a bug, the best thing you can do is write a test for it. Beyond that, writing a test and then a patch is great.
- Use other methods. There's nothing in the perms branch that is groundbreaking, and you can apply permissions at several different spots already. Tastypie was designed to be extended, so you should be able to make the changes you need in your code. You should be able to get your work done without it.
- Fork it, use something else, write your own.
What not to do:
- Ask when it will be done. Done is relative, depends on lots of moving pieces, lots of testing, etc.
- Threaten to fork. Do it, or don't do it. Tastypie has a very permissive license, so you are free to fork it temporarily/permanently/publicly/privately... You basically only have an obligation to follow the LICENSE.
If you'd like to talk further, I'd be happy to chat. Please direct it at [email protected]. I'm happy to help out, and while I have commit rights on Tastypie, right not I use it mostly for merging in tested bug fixes and making documentation better, as that's what I have time for.
Sorry if this made your day worse in some way.
