Although the pattern references 'mysite.polls.views' which includes a
reference to the 'mysite' project, you need to keep in mind that this
string is just an indication of where Django can import the 'polls'
application.
By default, Django will put a new application as a subdirectory of a
given project. However, there is nothing stopping you from moving an
application to a project-neutral location (e.g., into a local
repository of applications, or even into site-packages). As long as
Python can import the named module using the provided name, you can
put the application module anywhere you want on your system.
