    623 We don't recommend you create users via the admin interface, because at the 
    624 moment it requires you to edit password hashes manually. (Passwords are hashed 
    625 using one-way hash algorithms for security; there's currently no Web interface 
    626 for changing passwords by entering the actual password rather than the hash.) 
    627  
    628 To create a user, you'll have to use the Python API. See `creating users`_ for 
    629 full info. 
     623If you'd like to use the admin site to create users, upgrade to the Django 
     624development version, where this problem was fixed on Aug. 4, 2006. 
     625 
     626You can also use the Python API. See `creating users`_ for full info.
