Comment (by EvilDMP):

 Thanks.

 I have made a couple of changes and corrections locally based on comments
 from Mark Jones, but I also made a mess rebasing my local copy, and now I
 am not sure how (or whether) I can push them to my branch on GitHub, all
 at
 
<https://github.com/evildmp/django/blob/tutorial05-test/docs/intro/tutorial05.txt>.

 If I want to comment on your version, or note typos etc, what is the best
 way to do that?

 For example:

     was_published_recently() returns True, though we wanted it to return
 False`

 If I *don't* override_settings, DEBUG = False causes a
 TemplateDoesNotExist: 404.html:


 {{{

 args=(self.stones_poll.id,)))

   File "/home/daniele/django-testing-tutorial/local/lib/python2.7/site-

     t = loader.get_template(template_name) # You need to create a 404.html
 template.
   File "/home/daniele/django-testing-tutorial/local/lib/python2.7/site-
 packages/django/template/loader.py", line 145, in get_template
     template, origin = find_template(template_name)
   File "/home/daniele/django-testing-tutorial/local/lib/python2.7/site-
 packages/django/template/loader.py", line 138, in find_template
     raise TemplateDoesNotExist(name)
 TemplateDoesNotExist: 404.html

 }}}

 Finally, my preference when writing documents like this (on the web,
 dense, and likely to be read by non-native English speakers) is to break
 the text up into shorter paragraphs than the Django documentation
 generally does. What's your feeling on that?
