Release notes 

Allows csc.nl to be used without the database. Added support for Hungarian, better support for Japanese, and lots of new data in English and Chinese.

See http://csc.media.mit.edu/docs for documentation.

Changelog

Major code changes:

* Made almost all of `csc.nl` work independently from the database, and only import the database settings if it absolutely needs to. This lets `csc.nl` work even when a different Django database is loaded.
* Added support for Hungarian using Snowball, in `csc.nl.hu`.
* Added experimental support for Japanese in `csc.nl.ja`, thanks to Tyson Roberts. This uses MeCab and CaboCha to tokenize and lemmatize Japanese text. This replaces the previous trivial `csc.nl.ja` module. Japanese concepts have not yet been updated, however.
* `csc.nl.euro` now contains methods for extracting relevant words and phrases from free text.

Database changes:

* Imported the Traditional Chinese ConceptNet (thanks to Yen-Ling Kuo).
* Corrected some common types of parsing errors, such as parsing "[X] is [for Y]" instead of "[X] is for [Y]". Some of these were introduced by Verbosity.
* Updated English concepts that disagreed with the lemmatizer.

The database schema has not changed, so the 4.0rc1 database should still work.
