Since Django 1.2 final is almost out, I am curious if there are already projects that use the new object level permissions / row level permissions system. [django-authority][1] which is a possible solution for Django up to 1.1 has not been updated for a while, and does not (yet) use the new permissions system. It seems to me that Django-Authority is in a comatose state.

Does someone know about upcoming or maybe even finished solutions? I'd appreciate any good links to active projects with at least some downloadable content very much.

I tried using django-granular-permissions for a site a while ago, but was unable to get it to do what I needed (this may have been my own inability to understand what I needed to do rather than the app). Looking at the google code site's updates tab, it looks to not have had any work done on it since Summer/Autumn last year so it may be another dead duck.

also, the project seems to have moved: http://github.com/ryates/django-granular-permissions-redux

Finally, I found really good stuff: Florian Apolloner wrote a howto on djangoadvent: http://djangoadvent.com/1.2/object-permissions/ Now that's what I'm gonna use :)

Something useful might be as well: http://github.com/washingtontimes/django-objectpermissions
