Description

In django.conf.global_settings, SESSION_COOKIE_NAME should be changed from 'hotclub' to something more reasonable, like 'sessionid'. Even I looked at my cookies and wondered why I'd received one named 'hotclub'.

I agree -- we should change the default session cookie name. I didn't even think of the possibility that it might be interpreted as some sort of porn thing.
