access to id of current user on admin

[flavio.curella@…]

The model code of admin application doesn't have access to the request, so if I want to save the id of user that is creating the poll, I can't access to it.

this may be more clear, something like this should work:

from django.core import meta
from django.models.auth import User

# Create your models here.
class Poll(meta.Model):

question = meta.CharField(maxlength=200)
pub_date = meta.DateTimeField('date published')
author = meta.ForeignKey(User, default=User.id)
class META:

admin = meta.Admin()
