Any recommendation for a notifications framework that supports multiple backends? I would also like to have the notifications saved in the database. Is there a standard out there for this type of action?

I've found this to be pretty big deal. There are a couple of projects like django-notifications, but I think it only serves half. Notifications is something that almost every web app you build has be it. I've built two different notification systems which support different backends.

I'm thinking of giving it a try to create an open source django notifications project which supports different backends, aggregation, de-duplication, user notifications, activity feed. Seems like pretty ambitious but I think it can be built generic enough to work in multiple projects, at least that was what I've encountered so far.

Have you not looked at django-notifications? (https://github.com/django-notifications/django-notifications)
I have. From what I have seen, it does not support e-mail notifications out of the box.
