This is indeed a solid list. The most comprehensive best-practices resource of Django I've come across by far is "Two Scoops of Django"[1] by "pydanny"[2]. Its absolutely worth the $17. [1]: https://django.2scoops.org/ [2]: http://pydanny.com/

to be honest I am currently lost on the state of oauth in python, has sth changed since this post http://pydanny.com/the-sorry-state-of-python-oauth-providers.html? as OP is a client lib, could somebody with practical experience tell me what's the current best library for setting up an oauth provider? bonus question: should I bother with 2.0 or stick to 1.0 (3rd party apps and mobile) http://hueniverse.com/2012/07/oauth-2-0-and-the-road-to-hell/ ?
