Dear devs

MAAS is broken on quantal, this needs to be fixed ASAP.  If you are not on 
quantal, or don't have access to a box running quantal, you need to rectify 
this *immediately* please.

The test output has a lot of this in it:
maas.maasserver: ERROR: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py", line 
111, in get_response
    response = callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/views/decorators/vary.py", 
line 19, in inner_func
    response = func(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/home/ed/.buildout/eggs/django_piston-0.2.3-
py2.7.egg/piston/resource.py", line 184, in __call__
    if isinstance(result, HttpResponse) and not result._is_string:
AttributeError: 'HttpResponse' object has no attribute '_is_string'

This is because Piston 0.2.3 is not compatible with Django 1.4.  Unfortunately 
there is no new release of Piston to fix this :(  We will have to backport the 
fix in Piston's trunk to the quantal package.

I don't know if there are any other pertinent errors since the output is so 
polluted by this it's hard to tell if the others are because of this or not.

The Piston fix is here:

Andres, can you backport to the quantal python-django-piston please?

Thanks
J
