Hide 'tos' pull-down selector from Program profile forms. Until a way to select Documents for use as the Terms of Service for a Program exists (see http://code.google.com/p/soc/issues/detail?id=151), there is no point in hacking in scope_path and link_id fields here. The per-Program ToS feature will just be unavailable until an appropriate Document selector exists. Patch by: Todd Larsen Review by: to-be-reviewed

Portable file locking utilities.

Example Usage::

    >>> locks.lock(f, locks.LOCK_EX)
    >>> f.write('Django')
    >>> f.close()
