It seems that Django doesn't have a convention on the placement of template files. What would be the most logical, preferred placement?
(Since Django stresses the interoperability of apps, I assume that the "best" placement would be somewhere under /app/; maybe /app/templates/?)
As best pracice under your django project, the templates should be stored under $project_dir/templates/ directory because by default django scans templates from every $application_dir/templates directory. That way you have a convention between your project and application directory structure. Hope that makes sense.
