Django Contact.app

A Django implementation of the Contact.app used in the Chapter 3 of the book Hypermedia Systems.

This is for people familiar with Django wishing to continue the reading in familiar territory.

The game is to use a hypermedia-oriented library to improve this "web 1.0 application" while retaining the hypermedia-based approach.
