gentoo-ads 
created by Matthew Summers, Richard Anderson and Darren Wynne of Liquidus Tech, LLC

this is an ads (automated display system)
written in python and using the django web framework

It is licensed under the GPLv3 or greater.

gentoo-ads has been tested with python-2.6.3 and django-1.1.1 
but should work just fine on python-2.5 and django-1.0.x.
There are no other direct dependencies.

The gentoo-ads 'ads' module uses a simple random weighted subset method 
to choose the object to display.

To get started simply: 
$ cd gentoo_ads
$ cp example_settings.py settings.py

Edit the CONFIG_PATH in settings.py to point to your copy of example_ads.py

Then run the django development webserver via
$ python manage.py runserver

Finally, navigate your browser to http://localhost:8000 to view the display results.
