Description (last modified by tanner)

The dependencies (incl. min. version) of Django and its contrib apps don't seem to be documented explicitly.
For example, ImageField requires Pillow and PostgreSQL requires psycopg2 (soon >=2.5).
I think it would be useful to collect that information in the installation instructions.

ImageField and psycopg2 are there, but I'll make some minor tweaks to the install instructions.

Since Django gives a helpful error message if you use ImageField and don't have Pillow installed, I don't think that needs a specific mention.
