Hey Dirk,

I cannot remember Zuzel mentioning throttling so maybe it was an
internal comment to you. In any case the defaults in tastypie are
quite strict and we can use that.

Here is the card for throttling:
https://trello.com/card/add-throttling/4f4fb70ee4ba0e4f098263e9/16
and here is the card for caching:
https://trello.com/card/add-caching/4f4fb70ee4ba0e4f098263e9/17

Never got a confirmation so it was not added, but can make that change
with the reqs file change you asked last time we talked about it (it
was a reference that I was using >= instead of =, so it should be
painless enough).

Can add it to my backlog and give alpha a go sometime soon. Let me
know what you guys think.

cheers,
José
