+django-oscar is an ecommerce framework for Django, designed for building
+domain-driven applications.  It is structured in way that lets any part of the
+core functionality be customised to suit the needs of your project.  For
+instance, if every product in your shop has an associated video, then
+django-oscar lets you add such a field to your core product model.  You don't
+have to model your domain logic using the Entity-Attribute-Value pattern or
+other such meta-nastiness - your core models should reflect the specifics of
+your domain.
