I would NOT use the builtin restructuredtext stuff in the django markup module. It is insanely insecure and buggy. (unless you want your headings not to be rendered, the ability for any arbitrary shell commands being run on your server, and random crashes at startup).<BR/><BR/>The django-wiki project has already converted over yo the rstpages code (for the functionality it needed).<BR/><BR/>Once I get the core done I plan on adding pygments and LaTeX mathematical expression support (as optional configs).<BR/><BR/>The old rstpages can be found here:<BR/><A HREF="https://pycon.coderanger.net/browser/django/trunk/pycon/restructuredtext" REL="nofollow">pycon/restructuredtext/</A><BR/><BR/>It includes support for rendering any restructured text in a template (tags/filters), serving up rst files on disk as html (generic view), online editable site content like a wiki or private editing with error detection, rss feeds, html diff, page index, site index, change history (generic views).<BR/><BR/>I am looking for people to help me with it and it will also be a part of the second Pinax web project after cloud27.Doug Napoleonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07331585381804299154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671476328661520656.post-79663163592679724632008-07-14T06:29:00.000-07:002008-07-14T06:29:00.000-07:00@cakebreak I doubt Google would appreciate me runn...@cakebreak I doubt Google would appreciate me running a personal site off their servers.<BR/><BR/>I will look at WebFaction, though.<BR/><BR/>@dougal<BR/>How much work will their be on the language?
