Malcolm Tredinnick bfcecbffd3 Changed/fixed the way Django handles SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO (or
equivalents). Basically, URL resolving will only use the PATH_INFO and the
SCRIPT_NAME will be prepended by reverse() automatically. Allows for more
portable development and installation. Also exposes SCRIPT_NAME in the
HttpRequest instance.

There are a number of cases where things don't work completely transparently,
so mod_python and fastcgi users should read the relevant docs.

Fixed #285, #1516, #3414.

README

Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development
and clean, pragmatic design.

All documentation is in the "docs" directory and online at
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/.  If you're just getting started,
here's how we recommend you read the docs:

    * First, read docs/install.txt for instructions on installing Django.

    * Next, work through the tutorials in order (docs/tutorial01.txt,
      docs/tutorial02.txt, etc.).

    * If you want to set up an actual deployment server, read docs/modpython.txt
      for instructions on running Django under mod_python.

    * The rest of the documentation is of the reference-manual variety.
      Read it -- and the FAQ -- as you run into problems.

Docs are updated rigorously. If you find any problems in the docs, or think they
should be clarified in any way, please take 30 seconds to fill out a ticket
here:

http://code.djangoproject.com/newticket
