You would only have to change it if you used a CharField with the username for the ‘owner’ field for some god awful reason – it should be a ForeignKey to User

thanks for your post– #2 was also really helpful for me. FWIW, i dont know if this is a change is django implementation or not, but i had to explicitly call my form with request.user.username, since request.user is the entire user object (which still prints as ‘username’ because presumably it has the __unicode__ method defined).

anyway, many thanks!

This helped me out immensely! Thanks for posting this. I did not think to override the field in the init method, unlike suggested in the Django docs.

You’re absolutely right! I’ve lost it from sight, when it actually is the elephant in the room.

But it isn’t just httpd processes – it’s mod_python being so much worse.

You’re focusing on httpd vs wsgi process instead of what matters :p
