I just upgraded to AppEngine version 1.5.1 (I was a few versions
behind), and noticed this in the release notes for 1.5.0:
"Users can provide Django settings to be loaded in webapp's
django_setup."

Anyone know what this means? I'm not aware of the "django_setup"
method mentioned here, and haven't been able to find any docs on it.
I'm running django-nonrel for my app, so this caught my eye and I
wondered if it's something I should be taking advantage of. I'm not
having any issues with my Django configuration...but for educational
reasons it would be nice to know what's being referenced here.

Yes, I am also interested to know.

If your using Django-Nonrel, you can use it "right out of the box"
without any special configuration. It uses it's own supplied version
of Django that resides in your app's codebase and ignores GAE's built-
in version so you can ignore any references to "django_setup".

Thanks for Django-Nonrel pointer, but I am using GAE's built-in version, so what can "django_setup" do for me?
