Allow parameter for custom base source directory about djangorecipe HOT 5 CLOSED

Why would you expect it to be generated in src/? I know some people use that as a default. I also have for a time, but I don't do it anymore.

Note that, for instance, buildout's mr.developer extension uses src/ as the default place to check out projects, leading to a potential clash.

=> Placing it in src/ is more of a personal preference instead of something djangorecipe should force as the new default on all users. Or am I missing something?

The request is to provide a parameter to allow users to customize where the
project sources are generated. I'm not suggesting we force anything on
anyone, only that we provide the option to customize.

I agree with @rfkrocktk, the way now is actually forcing user to create their project at the ./ folder. A parameter would be good.

There are a couple of related issues, I tagged them: https://github.com/rvanlaar/djangorecipe/issues?labels=projectgeneration&page=1&state=open

The important one is #65: do we still need to do it ourselves now that Django does it?

I've removed the project generation functionality as django does it itself already.
