Comment:

 I'm newbie to django, and this page is the result of one of my few
 searches about django. It means, IMHO, maybe many newbies can confuse on
 this issue like me.

 my question is: "why we should use relative path for templates directory
 setting? It is always same in relative(for many cases) but it is different
 in absolute.(and how many times is it placed on outside of project?) then
 why we all do add three same lines into settings.py everytime? (import os,
 project_path=..., os.path.join...)" can I get some reasonable reason?

 "app_directories template loader" is not a good solution because the
 look&feel is site specific rather than application specific.
 (app_directories template loader is usefull for drop-in applications
 instead.)

 please excuse my poor English. thank you for your consideration.
