Pinax Progress II

Yesterday I reported that we'd added the following to Pinax in the last 24 hours:

  • user profile pages
  • gravatars
  • user-to-user messages (via django-messages)
  • announcements (a new app, django-announcements)
  • OpenID support
  • invitations to join

Well, in the last 24 hours we've added to that:

  • translations into German, Spanish and Swedish
  • a new design / logo
  • auto-completion on message recipient field
  • a basic Twitter clone
  • OEmbed support in tweets
  • the beginnings of tribes (i.e. groups)

I could not have hoped for a more productive weekend!

Earlier in the day I did a rough count purely based on file-size and estimated that Pinax is:

  • 63% re-usable apps;
  • 10% local app;
  • 13% templates;
  • 8% localization;
  • 5% media;
  • 1% util

which bodes well for the original goal of Pinax: to jump-start some reusable Django apps.
