Hi,

I'm currently writing an application which would benefit greatly from
an already-existing drag-n-drop interface for something like the
order_with_respect_to option.

Digging around the code, I see that order_with_respect_to seems
unmaintained -- there are portions of the code which are marked as
"TODO". In fact, as far as I can see, order_with_respect_to won't do
what it says on the label at all.

Am I missing the point here?

Is there somebody working on this?

Would a resurrection of a drag-n-drop UI for order_with_respect_to be welcomed?

Regards,

Russell

Last I heard on this issue is this ticket:

But that hasn’t gotten much of love, last “action” is from around  
January. The mockups from Wilson look nice anyway, maybe they’re  
helpful for your needs.

Yeah. I, for one, would very much welcome something like it.

BTW: is this code working at the moment?

Cheers.

Thanks for the pointer, I didn't pick that ticket up. I do like those
mockups. Wilson -- are you still working on that stuff? Do you have
any abandoned code to share with me?

Great, I'll continue working on it then :)

Yes, for some values of yes :)

So far, I've dropped in dom-drag.js, hacked the change_form.html
template a little and applied the patch I posted to ticket #2137 and
have something which suggests that a large portion of the code (still)
works. It's still a bit broken in that it sets all the li's to be
absolute position, which means that everything collapses under them...
But now that I've seen Wilson's mockups, it makes a lot more sense :)
