Release: django-email-as-username

Okay, I know there are a handful of other apps that already do this, but I wasn't quite happy with anything that was out there.

I've pushed the django-email-as-username package to PyPI.

Source and docs available here: https://github.com/dabapps/django-email-as-username

I think it's pretty comprehensive...

1. Provides an email auth backend and helper functions for creating users.

2. Patches the Django admin to handle email based user authentication.

3. Overides the `createsuperuser` command to create users with email only.  (Eg during initial `syncdb`)

4. Treats email authentication as case-insensitive.

There's a few outstanding tickets for extra little tweaks to improve things even more, such as providing a migration for adding it to existing projects and so on.

Would appreciate any forks/ideas for improvements etc.etc.

Cheers,

  Tom
