Jacob Kaplan-Moss 9f8287a3f1 SECURITY ALERT: Corrected regular expressions for URL and email fields.
Certain email addresses/URLs could trigger a catastrophic backtracking situation, causing 100% CPU and server overload. If deliberately triggered, this could be the basis of a denial-of-service attack.

This security vulnerability was disclosed in public, so we're skipping our
normal security release process to get the fix out as soon as possible.

This is a security related update. A full announcement, as well as backports for the 1.1.X and 1.0.X series will follow.

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://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/. If you're just getting started, here's
how we recommend you read the docs:

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

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

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

    * You'll probably want to read through the topical guides (in docs/topics)
      next; from there you can jump to the HOWTOs (in docs/howto) for specific
      problems, and check out the reference (docs/ref) for gory details.

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:
