Your applications should be root url agnostic. Each app should have
its own urls.py and the root site urls.py (and its accompanying
settings.py) should have the site specific information including the
root. Then the apps are included in the site specific root urls.py
You might want to check out this thread for more information:
http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/e9d92bceab679f6a/#
Here is an example of having the root urls.py get its bases from
settings.py (though not a very good one):
https://svn.python.org/conference/django/trunk/pycon/urls.py
Hope that helps!
