Our pal JustJohnny directs us to the new Seymour Herald newspaper website that he developed. It's another Django (the pure open source version) based site, and it is very slick.

And here's an interesting fact. Johnny says that all the content creation for print and web is done in the web publishing backend first, then output for print publishing. The classifieds, obits, police beat etc. all come from xml created by Django and imported directly into InDesign. He says this has reduced layout time from 6-8 hours to about three.

Nice work!

(For some reason I didn't know about the Seymour Herald, but I've added it to the Local Media links.)
