> * We should de-emphasize the "apps live inside of projects" thing.
+1 on that. In fact I wonder whether we should in fact emphasize just the opposite -- that apps should *not* live inside of projects. I get that one of the purposes of the tutorial is to get you up and running fast, but when someone's trying to get a quick start and not really paying attention to comments like "we'll show how to de-couple later", they may just follow the pattern given and unconsciously assume that it's the usual way to do things. IMO startproject and startapp are misleading because 1) they sound necessary, but they're not; 2) they don't really do much for you; and 3) folks are led to use manage.py instead of django-admin, which causes confusion down the road. I'm not an expert in pedagogy, but it seems preferable to me to demonstrate best practices up front.
