======== Overview
Mezzanine is a powerful, consistent, and flexible content management
platform. Built using the Django
_ framework, Mezzanine provides a
simple yet highly extensible architecture that encourages diving in
and hacking on the code. Mezzanine is BSD licensed
_ and supported by
a diverse and active community.
In some ways, Mezzanine resembles tools such as Wordpress
_,
providing an intuitive interface for managing pages, blog posts, form
data, store products, and other types of content. But Mezzanine is
also different. Unlike many other platforms that make extensive use of
modules or reusable applications, Mezzanine provides most of its
functionality by default. This approach yields a more integrated and
efficient platform.

Support
To report a security issue, please send an email privately to
[email protected]
_. This gives us a chance to fix the issue
and create an official release prior to the issue being made public.
For all other Mezzanine support, the primary channel is the
mezzanine-users
_ mailing list. Questions, comments, issues, feature
requests, and all other related discussions should take place here.
If you're certain you've come across a bug, then please use the
GitHub issue tracker
_, however it's crucial that enough information
is provided to reproduce the bug, ideally with a small code sample repo
we can simply fork, run, and see the issue with. Other useful
information includes things such as the Python stack trace generated by
error pages, as well as other aspects of the development environment
used, such as operating system, database, and Python version. If
you're not sure you've found a reproducible bug, then please try
the mailing list first.
