Alternatives or do-it-yourself?

[guettli]

I am working on an old code base which uses django-generic-confirmation.

Since this projects looks dead I see these options:

1. try to find a better maintained fork
2. fork it myself, and maintain it
3. Find a similar library which implements something like this
4. don't use this library and do-it-yourself.

I think I will do "do-it-yourself".

I will create a db model which holds the data (I try to avoid pickle, since this often creates strange issues in the long run. For example if your data model changes ....)

And if you call the model like PendingFoo... then it is clear what is inside this table.

An UUID would be usefull for the primary key.

Please leave your thoughts below, if you are in the same situation.
