11115	overriding change_list.html causes 'maximum recursion depth exceeded' exceptin	margieroginski@…	nobody	"I am trying to override the admin sites' change_list.html, following
the example at:

http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#overriding-ad...

If I create templates/admin/myapp/change_list.html and just put this
in it (and nothing else):

{% extends ""admin/change_list.html"" %}

I get
