Hi Yann

I believe the correct license for Django-derived files is BSD-3-Clause:

  https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/LICENSE

That should be fine, those files were authored as part of the project.

Correct, and we'd be required to re-apply it every time we upgraded as well 
which is likely to get forgotten. You could always get them to add one 
upstream if you're really keen :)

Note that some of the templates used for authentication originally came from 
here:

  https://github.com/macdhuibh/django-registration-templates

The LICENSE file indicates MIT for those though.

The txt files are tricky because any stray newlines will affect formatting. I 
would probably avoid touching them.

Cheers
Paul
