Description
Hi,
I'm sending you a patch to version from 2007-09-03 trunk checkout. For django.core.serialize method serialize() in xml mode, can take bool param flexmode which enables easier xml parsing from Adobe Flex (HttpService+Dataprovider) - i.e. no '-' in main tag name, tags 'field' to '%field.name%' tag.
Sample usage:
data = serializers.serialize("xml", Holiday.objects.all(), flexmode=True)

This is too specialised for core (particularly the first part of the change -- removing the hyphen: that just says Adobe's thing can't speak XML). Since serializers are designed to be subclassable, this should be easy enough to use as a subclass.
