Hey everyone, I'm the primary author and I'm really proud that we're finally announcing this. I'd love to answer any of your questions!

Looks neat.

> You should use DJOAuth2 if you’re running Django 1.4 – 1.6.2 on Python 2.7 and you want to implement the server side of the OAuth 2.0 protocol.

With django v1.7 (featuring support for migrations née south) out in beta, are there plans to support v1.7?

Thanks again for sharing.

Yeah, that would be awesome. I haven't looked into it yet but if you'd be willing to help out we'd be happy to accept contributions! The one thing that I think might be tricky with including standard migrations is keeping them compatible with Django 1.4-1.6; although it seems to be possible to have both in a given package [0] it doesn't seem all that user-friendly.

I'll be completely honest, I'm new to django. I think that's over my head. If I can get some time soon and take a stab at it and have a respectable starting point, I'll be glad to share.

I didn't mean to dismissively say "hey, nice thing, but you should really XYZ", I was more curious than anything. As with all other free/open software, I'm getting more than my money's worth.
