[Tilesathome] Need help installing tahngo server

It looks like it is using INSTALLED_APPS to look for the "tah" module, but
couldn't find it on disk.

Yes, changing the base directory to "tah" worked.

Which led me into the following error:

> ----------------------------

Google tells me that this is some sort of error in versions of Django,
where they are in the process of converting from maxlength to max_length. 
I had installed Django 0.96.2 from the official release tarball, which
gave the max_length error above.

So I removed it and installed the development copy from the Django svn
repository.  That eliminated the max_length error.  It then gave me some
warnings about "maxlength" being deprecated.  But syncdb finally said it
created the tables (using sqlite2), so it looks good.

Now onto the next step.
