m2m relationship without intermediary model

[Alejandro Varas]

I think is easier to do something like

class Reporter(models.Model):

first_name = models.CharField(maxlength=30)
last_name = models.CharField(maxlength=30)
position = models.ManyToManyField(Article, position)# with that we can say, here is a m2m relationship with an extra field

class Article(models.Model):

headline = models.CharField(maxlength=100)
pub_date = models.DateField()

it is just a suggestion to make it easier and in a shorter way

the idea is not to code the intermediary model

I can't really see an "action" here, so I don't really think this belongs in the ticket tracker; if you've got an idea to discuss, please take it to django-dev.
