This is a basic Django application implementing the most simplest form of a blog (from my point of view, of course). It has been written with an eye on keeping modularity as far as possible, so you won't find lots of goodies in the code, but just a couple of features to help you start hacking.
I initially developed the first version of this app for a social network, to give its users the ability to control who has privileges upon their profiles, photo albums, personal information, and such. If you are in a similar situation, you'll find that django-rbac suits perfect for your purposes. But, as long as a general-purpose access control is being implemented, even if you are building any other kind of application which needs this level of permission control, django-rbac will help you out. I think I have made it enough generic to match a wide range of use cases.
