Description

I was going through the GeoDjango tutorial recently and noticed that the installation instructions hadn't been updated to consider homebrew as an alt. to macports. Homebrew being the new hotness and all, I gave it a shot and it worked flawlessly. Details are here [1]. To that end I thought I should start a homebrew subsection to the OSX section of the installation page. Patch forthcoming.

Eh, might as well just make it like the macports section (which could be replaced by this) and not mark is as only for postgis
