 2. Django setup
 
-	You'll need to customise apps/settings.py to suit your database, and
-	change the SECRET_KEY variable too. While you're there, change the
-	following to suit your installation:
+        At the time of initial release, patchwork depends on a svn version of
+        django. I've been using svn commit 7854 - but anything after this
+        point should be fine. If your distribution provides a sufficiently
+        recent version of django, you can use that; if not, do a:
+
+         cd lib/packages
+         svn checkout http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk django
+         cd ../python
+         ln -s ../packages/django/django ./django
+
+        We also use the django-registration infrastructure from
+        http://code.google.com/p/django-registration/
 
-	  ADMINS,
+         cd lib/packages/
+         svn checkout \
+             http://django-registration.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/registration/ \
+             django-registration
+         cd ../../apps
+         ln -s ../lib/packages/django-registration ./registration
+
+	The settings.py file contains default settings for patchwork, you'll
+	need to configure settings for your own setup.
+
+	Rather than edit settings.py, create a file 'local_settings.py', and
+	override or add settings as necessary. You'll need to define the
+	following:
+
+	  SECRET_KEY
+	  ADMINS
 	  TIME_ZONE
 	  LANGUAGE_CODE
+
+        You can generate the SECRET_KEY with the following python code:
+
+          import string, random
+          chars = string.letters + string.digits + string.punctuation
+          print repr("".join([random.choice(chars) for i in range(0,50)]))
+
+	If you have patchwork installed in somewhere other than /srv/patchwork,
+	you'll also need to define:
+
 	  MEDIA_ROOT
+	  TEMPLATE_DIRS
+
+        If you wish to enable the XML-RPC interface, add the following to
+        your local_settings.py file:
+
+	  ENABLE_XMLRPC = True
 
 	Then, get patchwork to create its tables in your configured database:
 
 	 cd apps/
-	 ./manage.py syncdb
+	 PYTHONPATH=../lib/python ./manage.py syncdb
 
 	And add privileges for your mail and web users:
 
 	Postgresql:
-	  psql -f lib/sql/grant-all.sql patchwork
+	  psql -f lib/sql/grant-all.postgres.sql patchwork
+
+	MySQL:
+	  mysql patchwork < lib/sql/grant-all.mysql.sql
