        Django-minipub is a **mini**-malist **pub**-lication control system for Django.
        
        Let's explain it with an example: you have a 'news' application, with an
        Article model. In the admin interface, Minipub will add this fieldset:
        
        .. image:: docs/img/minipub-fieldset.png
        
        All articles will then have the following 3 fields:
        
        - status: usually ``draft`` or ``published``.
        - start: start date.
        - end: end date; optional.
        
        Articles will only be visible in the public website **if** they are ``published``
        **and** today's date is between the start and end dates.
        
        In addition, we have a fieldset for showing various read-only status fields:
        
        .. image:: docs/img/minipub-status-fieldset.png
        
        These can be of use for tracking changes to an Article.
        
        And that's it... Minipub is simply a few fields on a Model Mixin, together with plenty of code - in the models,
        views, admin and sitemap - to make the best use of it, that you will hopefully reuse
        again and again throughout a project.
        
        What can I use it for?
        ----------------------
        Here are some examples of Minipub at work:
        
        - `Controlling the publication of the Events for a F1 racetrack <http://www.silverstone.co.uk/events/>`_.
        - `Controlling when job offers are displayed <http://www.ipglobal-ltd.com/en/about/careers/>`_.
        - `Minutes of the meetings of a residents association website <http://www.saphra.org.uk/meetings/>`_.
        
        Alternatives
        ------------
        There are several similar projects that take slightly different approaches
        to publication control; usually they introduce more sophisticated control. A well-known
        example is `django-reversion <https://github.com/etianen/django-reversion>`_.
        
        Minipub is a very basic publication control tool, but works well on several production
        websites. Its author has found it be a decent compromise between a tool that's too
        basic to be useful, and too complex to be understood by its intended end users.
