== Session Messages ==

This page is meant to evaluate some of the different session/cookie message/notification engines out there for potential inclusion in the Django core.  It is a work in progress so please contribute (your notification engine here) or other changes as you see fit.

For more information see:
 * Ticket #4604
 * http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/eba93088c649022b

=== Criteria ===

Criteria necessary for inclusion in the core:

 * Support message passing for anonymous users
 * Avoid database/cache queries if possible
 * Support larger messages that don't fit in a cookie
 * Don't lose messages if they're not displayed to the user
 * Provide a standard so that reusable apps can provide feedback related to the current session
 * Needs community approval/support
 * Needs to be the "de facto" standard implementation
