ah sorry, i misunderstood your request.

if you wanted to work on a more complete login system, that would be
great.  i can probably hack something up myself when i get back if
it's important to you too.  of course i'd be more than happy to give
help if you wanted to tackle it yourself.

the securetest example doesn't really use any persistence for the
users because i thought it was hard to predict what people would want
to use.  but maybe when i'll get back i'll write a tutorial which is
the creation of such a login system.  it would be a good example of
using pylets and ormit together.

one thing i don't have in the system yet is any sort of reaper.
things like challenge-response and sessions probably would work better
if there was a reaper to cull expired data.  shouldn't be too hard to
write.

thanks for your interest.  let me know what you plan on doing so i
don't overlap with you.

take care, B
