I can't see any reason to be particularly innovative here. I'd go with Postgresql.

I'm once again happy to follow your lead.

What do you need a database for?

drvinceknight commented 9 years ago

We're kind of talking about that on #5...

meatballs commented 9 years ago

Django requires a DB for its (mandatory) session and user management, if nothing else.

meatballs commented 9 years ago

the dj-database-url package makes this redundant as the db can be defined locally to be anything that's supported by Django.
