Hizees! We're going to hack on Mezzanine, a Django Content Management System (CMS).

Install Mezzanine

Firstly, install and start a Python virtual environment:

sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv
virtualenv mezzanine-env
cd mezzanine-env
source bin/activate

You should now be in a Python virtual environment. This will isolate your Python libraries from the system's ones in case stuff breaks. Now install some dependencies:

sudo apt-get install python-pip python-imaging pyflakes pep8 python-tz

Then grab it from github:

git clone https://github.com/stephenmcd/mezzanine.git
