I am working on a small Django site where every user who leaves a comment on the site gets an email with a password (email is the user name) to change the comment later on.

The site should also support functions for users to retrieve or reset passwords. For this simple task I wanted to use the Django auth capabilities.

Is there a Django app which provides a simple package of user management (to reset or change a user's password) which I could incorporate in my site?

Would packages like Pinax or Drupal help for this simple task? They seem to be the overkill.

If you are looking for an advanced profile-/account-module you could take a look at django-userena

Some other options are listed in the profiles-grid on Django Packages.

Reset and change password are both included in the standard contrib.auth views.
