Description

USStateField is currently in django.db.models.fields. Pre-1.0 stage is the last chance to move it to a proper place, i.e. to django.contrib.localflavor.us.

For the record - I'm in favor of this change; It's probably also worth looking at PhoneNumberField (either moving to USPhoneNumberField in localflavor, or reassessing the default widget)

Some decisions I didn't make:

  • The Person model in docs/topics/db/models.txt uses a models.USStateField. Leaving it in the example without an import line may cause confusion, but it feels wrong to have the import in a code fragment of that sort.
  • db.backends.*.creation defines a [var]char field for USStateField. Should this now be handled by the field itself via db_type, and the entry removed from the creation modules?
  • gis.utils.layermapping maps a USStateField, but may not care about it after the field is no longer in the default django.db.models.fields collection.

Thanks for the good remark - I've opened #8664 for this case.

Please add a fix for this in the patch; just throw the import at the top of the code snippet.

  • db.backends.*.creation defines a [var]char field for USStateField. Should this now be handled by the field itself via db_type, and the entry removed from the creation modules?

Yes; please add it to the patch.

  • gis.utils.layermapping maps a USStateField, but may not care about it after the field is no longer in the default django.db.models.fields collection.

It's fine to leave this alone; Justin can clean it up if it bugs him.
