- 18. Pinax proposed by Orestis Markou So far it's just my new django-email-confirmation app tied together with password change and reset, login/logout, with the beginnings of a tab-style UI. There's a ton more I want to refactor out of my existing websites to put into it as well as adding support for OpenID and the stuff I'm starting to do for django- friends. Even if one doesn't use Pinax as the starting point of a website, I'm hoping it will prove very useful for another goal, namely a quot;hostquot; project to develop and tryout reusable apps. – blog post 10th May 2008
