I've enabled the django request processor

TEMPLATE_PROCESSORS = (
"django.core.context_processors.auth",
"django.core.context_processors.debug",
"django.core.context_processors.i18n",
"django.core.context_processors.media",
"django.core.context_processors.request",
)

Still i don't have to request variable available in templates. I've to manually pass it. Using django 1.0.2 Everywhere on web it seems it's only about enabled request processor..

Also i am using RequestContext as : 

 return render_to_response(
    'profile.html',
    {
        'persons':Person.objects.all(),
        'person':Person.objects.get(id=id),
         'request':request,
    },
    context_instance=RequestContext(request)
)

no luck

ohh darn the new name for that is TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS
