Used modified versions of django-registration and django-profiles , both on bitbucket.
The Person model is now set up as the profile for auth.User s.
I set up a requestcontext so that settings is automatically passed to every template, no need to repeat ourselves in views. However, this needs to be refined: I will soon change it to only pass a subset of settings. E.G. we do not need to be passing the DB login and password!

Also, the urls for the person model now allow lookups using their actual first and last name in the url instead of the primary key. We should do similar things for all models, maybe even using the url as a search which results in a page with multiple model instance results if the input is ambiguous (e.g. they only enter a first name).
