Support for Normalisation for Django Passwords

[Arun]

Hi,

As a Part of a Cisco project, we follow CSDL rules and we use Django Extensively.

As a part of Django, we would like to Follow certain Normalisation Process for all the Passwords during User Login.
In the Django Documentation, there isn’t any information on whether Django already follows any Particular Normalisation Process.

Could anyone please let me know if Django already Follows certain Normalisation process.
In case it does, what kind of Process is used and at which point is this applied?

In case, there is no Normalisation process applied, then how can a middleware be added to support this?

Regards
Arun.

Just for clarification, are you talking about normalization regarding i18n and Unicode issues, such as discussed at ​http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16173328/what-unicode-normalization-and-other-processing-is-appropriate-for-passwords-w ?

It looks as if you also asked this question on the Users mailing list. Depending on the discussion there, you could bring it up in the Dev mailing list. Could I suggest you remove this issue until there has been some discussion there? When you get a moment, thanks!

Yes, this isn't the correct place for usage questions, even if you don't get an answer on the ​django-users thread.
