Why would one need to reinvent the wheel? There is already ReST filter in markup contrib library.

NOTE: there are reasons to reinvent the wheel. For instance the default stuff in django contrib has some security risks that with it's base install can only be turned off if you have access to modify the machine level rest settings (cant be done on commodity hosting).

Also there are other things you might want to do, like find out if some RST has errors... render a file that is included in your template, etc. You may want to have a RSTField() for your forms (with validation!). Heck, you might even want a RST based wiki.

For that, may I recommend the system that the creator of RST uses:
