Currently there's no explanation provided for the existence of
LICENSE.python, and this occasionally causes confused emails to the DSF
asking if Django is dual licensed, or somehow not BSD licensed. There
should probably be a note in LICENSE.python explaining exactly what it
covers, and a note in the documentation explaining it as well.
