3rd Party App Directories

How to make this work: * Put the code into your settings.py (or even better, local_settings.py if you have one) * Put 3rd party apps you'd like to use into the directories specified in APP_DIRS. * Place 'appname', into INSTALLED_APPS. Just a little trick I use to keep from having to install apps via setup.py; I can just stick apps into arbitrary locations and use them. I also do this to keep single copies of 3rd party apps I use in multiple projects (but again without installing to the global python path). No idea if this is bad practice or anything, but I find it useful.
