Added the deactivation and account recovery system

Added the deactivation and account recovery systems.  The variable
EMAIL_MESSAGE was replaced with ACTIVATE_EMAIL, then RECOVERY_EMAIL was
added. The response variable was changed in all views to the correct
spelling.  The validation file has a new function to validate the
regular expressions in an email string and not check the database. And
finally the function UserActivationKey in views was renamed to KeyGen

-DJ-BaseSite was written in Python 2.7 and Django 1.4
-
-Description:
-DJ-BaseSite is a customizable login and register system with required email activation. While most people just use django-registration, I decided to write my own to learn more about Django. 
-
-NOTE TO DEVS:
-A deactivation system hasn't been added. The login system needs to check attempts and display a CAPTCHA after a certain amount, this isn't included either. It also doesn't have an account recovery option. I plan to implement all of these things in future updates.
-
-DJ-BaseSite is released under the New BSD License (The BSD 3-Clause License), refer to the LICENSE file.
-
-
-Instructions
-1. Install Python 2.7 (python.org) and Django 1.4 (djangoproject.com)
-2. Open up the config.txt file and change the data under CUSTOM VARIABLES to your information. The configuration variable meanings are below.
-3. Execute the SetupProject.py script and enter the project name, it will create a project based on your configuration.
-4. Run the SyncDB script or "python manage.py syncdb" and create a super user.
-5. Run the RunServer script or "python manage.py runserver" and check out your new website at localhost:8000 or 127.0.0.1:8000 in your browser.
-
-DJ-BaseSite uses Recaptcha to prevent bots from creating accounts, so you'll need to get private and public keys from the website: http://www.google.com/recaptcha
-
-Configuration Variable Meanings.
-===================================
--baseurl
-It is used to create activation and deactivation links [in views.py in register_user()]
-
--admin_name/email
-Adds a name and email to the ADMINS tuple in settings.py
-http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/settings/#admins
-
--secret_key
-A string used to provide cryptographic signing. (don't use spaces due to the configurtion system)
-https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/settings/#secret-key
-http://www.random.org/passwords/?mode=advanced
-
--captcha_publickey/privatekey
-DJ-BaseSite uses Recaptcha to prevent bots from creating accounts, get keys at http://www.google.com/recaptcha
-
--HOSTsmpt
-The SMPT server address with the email used to send activation emails. If your email doesn't support SMPT I highly suggest GMAIL.
-
--HOSTemail
-The email address
-
--HOSTpass
-The email's password
-===================================
-
-
-NOTE: It creates a development project, DEBUG is set to True in the settings.py so it is in no condition for deployment.

+# DJ-BaseSite
+
+DJ-BaseSite is a base Django **development** website project that adds basic user interaction to the site. Features include: The Django admin site, a login and logout system, a user registration system with required activation (via email), deactivation (an option during activation) and account recovery.
+
+#### _This project is currently in the Alpha phase. Therefore it is suggested you thoroughly read and test when forking, etc._
+
+DJ-BaseSite was written with [Python 2.7](http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7/) and [Django 1.4](https://www.djangoproject.com/download/) on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit (Service Pack 1)
+
+## License
+DJ-BaseSite is released under the New BSD License, refer to the LICENSE file in the root of the repository before continuing.
+
+## Change Log
+
+### `0.7` (Oct 20, 2012)
+* Added the deactivation and account recovery systems.
+* Variable `EMAIL_MESSAGE` was replaced with `ACTIVATE_EMAIL` & `RECOVERY_EMAIL` was added. 
+* The `response` variable was changed in all views to the correct spelling. derp.
+* Function `clean_emailRE()` was added to `validation.py`
+* The function `UserActivationKey()` in `views.py` was renamed to `KeyGen()`
+
+### [`0.5`](https://github.com/Kris619/DJ-BaseSite/zipball/80cdb11749afa9d2ecfcbb0a91f3f867f183bfc3) (Oct 13, 2012) SHA: 80cdb11749afa9d2ecfcbb0a91f3f867f183bfc3
+* login / registration system with Django's default authentication backend
+* activation system (deactivation system not implemented)
+* reCAPTCHA support for registration
+
+## Quick Start
+1. Open up the `config.txt` file and change the data under `CUSTOM VARIABLES` to your information. The configuration is explained below.
+2. Execute the `SetupProject.py` script and enter a project name, it will replicate the project out of `/myproject/` to `/yourproject/` with your information.
+3. Run syncdb via terminal/console in the root of the project: `python manage.py syncdb`
+    * Windows users will need to add the path of their Python 2.7 installation (example: `C:/Python27/`) to the [path variable](http://showmedo.com/videotutorials/video?name=960000&fromSeriesID=96)
+4. Run the development server: `python manage.py runserver`
+
+> You should be done at this point. So check out your new website at [http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000) or [http://127.0.0.1:8000](http://127.0.0.1:8000) in your browser.
+
+## Configuration
+
+* `baseurl`
+    * Used to create activation, deactivation and recovery links
+* `admin_name/email` `(`[`official documentation`](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/ref/settings/#admins)`)`
+    * Adds a name and email to the ADMINS tuple in settings. On an error your website will email you logged errors.
+* `secret_key` `(`[`official documentation`](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/ref/settings/#secret-key)`)`
+    * A secure string used to provide cryptographic signing. It is automatically added to a [default Django project](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial01/#creating-a-project) in settings.
+* `captcha_publickey/privatekey`
+    * DJ-BaseSite uses [reCAPTCHA](http://www.google.com/recaptcha/learnmore) to prevent bots from creating accounts, so you'll need to [get a private and public key from the website](http://www.google.com/recaptcha)
+* `HOSTsmtp`
+    * The SMTP server
+* `HOSTemail`
+    * The email address
+* `HOSTpass`
+   * HOSTemail's password
