Comment (by bb42):
I can not follow your arguments, the current docs are unclear, and the
staticfiles app can not be understood completely and configured correctly
quickly.
I spent two hours after learning that the apache-alias is the reasonable
solution; and I admin and configure web-apps for years. The basic-usage
paragraph just did not work for me (debian).
And "people how can't write an Alias directive by themselves" deploy tons
of non-django apps on their webserver.
The idea that you should only use what you understand completely is very
.. romantic. Did you ever take a plane?
But I understood your point about the Django philosophy, something like
"Let's keep it just as complicated so that current PHP users stay away."
