Notes while running through the Django tutorial
First, browse the overview here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/intro/overview/
The real tutorial is here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/intro/tutorial01/
Oops, have to install (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/intro/install/) before doing the tutorial.
Ahh, I guess it *is* installed:

OK, back to the tutorial.

Tried running the development server on weasel, but ran into firewall rules. Moved development to a workstation which is more in the spirit of the tutorial.
Had to install django there...
root@ferret:~/git/church-django/mysite# apt-get install python-django
And get the codebase
rday@ferret:~/git$ git clone ssh://weasel/drobo2/git/church-django.git Cloning into 'church-django'...
install python mysql connector
