The new system, called blueslip, makes errors fatal when in debug
mode and only output a message when running in production. In the
future, it could also send user errors back to us automatically.

This should substantially improve the repeat-rendering time for pages
with large numbers of tweets since we don't need to go all the way to
twitter.com, which can take like a second, to render tweets properly.
To deploy this commit properly, one needs to run
./manage.py createcachetable third_party_api_results

This code adds a dependency on python-django-auth-openid, installable as
django-openid-auth from PyPI.
On prod, one needs to run a syncdb in order to create the required
tables. A database *migration* is not required, as these are new tables
only.

This commit just moves time rendering logic to its own file, and does

Django doesn't use this setting, but South consults it when
inspecting tables for their constraints. The fact that we store our
tables in the 'humbug' schema was causing South to fail to find our
table constraints (it was looking in the 'public' schema) and
therefore throw an exception when we try to remove the unique
constraint in migration 0002.

This was to support get_updates sharding, which we never fully
implemented. We can recommit this change later if we choose to bring
the feature back.
This reverts commit fda2d99d9e9a07951d11fcd9fc61cf229988f471.

As a side-effect of customizing the e-mail, this also makes the host
on which the error happened a part of the subject line.

We need this so that we can safely expunge old events without interfering with
the running server. See #414.

Before this is deployed, we need to install rabbitmq and pika on the
target server (see the puppet part of this commit for how).
When this is deployed, we need to start the new user activity bot:
./manage.py process_user_activity
in the screen session on the relevant server, or user_activity logs
won't be processed (which will eventually result in all users getting
notifications about how their mirrors are out of date).

This commit has the effect of eliminating all of the non-UserActivity
database queries from the Tornado process -- at least in the uncached
case.
This is safe to do, if a bit fragile, since our Tornado code only
accesses these objects (as opposed to their IDs) in a few places that
are all fine with old data, and I don't expect us to add any new ones
soon:
* UserActivity logging, which I plan to move out of Tornado entirely
* Checking whether we're authenticated in our decorators (which could
be simplified -- the actual security check is just whether the
Django session object has a particular field)
* Checking the user realm for whether we should sync to the client
notices about their Zephyr mirror being up to date, which is quite
static and I think we can move out of this code path.
But implementation constraints around mapping the user_ids to
user_profile_ids mean that it makes sense to get the actual objects
for now.
This code is not what I want to do long-term. I expect we'll be able
to clean up the dual User/UserProfile nonsense once we integrate the
upcoming Django 1.5 release, with its support for pluggable User
models, and after that I change, I expect it'll be fairly easy to make
the Tornado code only work with the user ID, not the actual objects.

This was done using instructions provided by the South authors:
<http://south.readthedocs.org/en/0.7.6/convertinganapp.html>
This adds a dependency on python-django-south >=0.7.5. Now when you are
reinitializing the database, you need to run "./manage.py migrate --all"
before running populate_db.
When deploying this commit onto existing servers, you need to run these
commands manually:
./manage.py syncdb
./manage.py migrate zephyr 0001 --fake
./manage.py migrate confirmation 0001 --fake
These do *not* need to be run on new databases, only on existing ones.

This fixes a problem where if you were 1) running in development
mode, 2) had populated the database from production data, and 3)
tried to log in with an account that had changed its password, you
wouldn't be able to. The problem was that the password change
created a password change record with a PBKDF2 hash, not a SHA1 hash.
This change lets the dev server accept PBKDF2 hashed passwords, but
still use SHA1 password hashes for creating test users for speed.

If we have other pages that require login, we might want them to redirect to
the login form. But the root of the site should take you to /accounts/home --
but only after we launch the product.

The client may now optionally send its current pointer during
get_updates and the server will return the latest pointer if it
differs and was updated more recently by a different session.

Without this change, one can only create a few users per second(!),
which really puts a damper on quickly importing old messages.
(imported from commit 26daf61b57154daa067db3daf8254c12d23da353)
We add a few templates for django-confirmation. We define a
"PreregistrationForm" which is validated by accounts_home, which then
generates a confirmation object and emails the user. This required creating
a new table for a PreregistrationUser with an email and status (confirmed)
field.
The register function now no longer accepts a "email" field in the form
and deals only with confirmation IDs to determine the email used to sign
up a user.

Even though SQLite is the default, Django tries to import MySQLdb,
