[issue13737] bugs.python.org/review's Django settings file DEBUG=True

Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

I disagree that this is a security issue, or an issue at all. All source code of the site is in a public subversion repository, available for review to any attacker (as well as any security review) - and that is deliberately so because we fundamentally believe in openness of source code.

I fail to see why making the traceback available would pose any additional threat. Having the traceback is lightly helpful when people actually do encounter bugs and report them.
