"""
Caching framework.
This package defines set of cache backends that all conform to a simple API.
In a nutshell, a cache is a set of values -- which can be any object that
may be pickled -- identified by string keys. For the complete API, see
the abstract BaseCache class in django.core.cache.backends.base.
Client code should use the `cache` variable defined here to access the default
cache backend and look up non-default cache backends in the `caches` dict-like
object.
See docs/topics/cache.txt for information on the public API.
