Simple Attlasian CROWD authentication backend for Django

django-crowd's Issues

Licensing controversy

Hello, I was looking for Django module for Crowd auth, and found yours. However, I find licensing controversial. For example, https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-crowd says:

Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike license
("THE VEGETARIAN-FOOD-WARE LICENSE" (Revision 2))

Well, Crowd is commercial package, so how do you imagine someone bother with it as a hobby? In my case, I would be doing it as part of my paid job, but result is open-source app for free. Is it "commercial"? One can guess.

In https://github.com/gbezyuk/django-crowd/blob/master/LICENSE.TXT, I don't see any "non-commercial" phrases, but it's not an officially recognized (http://opensource.org/) license either. By the spirit, it's rather similar to BSD or MIT license, so why don't you use just that and put food jokes into README?

All in all, I'd probably skip your package by now, but hope that possible changes may be useful for your software to find more users in the future. Thanks.

HTTP 415 - Unsupported Media Type

Using Crowd version 2.11.1 here, we seem to get back HTTP Status 415 - Unsupported Media Type when attempting to authenticate using the options specified in https://github.com/gbezyuk/django-crowd/blob/master/crowd/backends.py#L61

Specifically, when we change the content-type header to application/xml it seems to work. I don't know if this used to work in older versions of Crowd the Crowd API Documentation doesn't seem to provide any examples where the content-type is set.

Possibility to add groups from Crowd

I was wondering if importing the groups to which the user belongs to from Crowd to Django was in the plans also.

Best,
