ModelForms development error messages

Reported by: Anton Kolechkin Owned by: Anton Kolechkin

Description 

from django.forms import ModelForm

class TrustForm(ModelForm):

    class Meta:
        pass # forgotten model attribute here

If Meta in formclass has no model attribute it raises exception like this:

TypeError at /exampleurl/ 'NoneType' object is not callable.

I guess my patch makes more informative exception messages. ValueError and TypeError may be wrong here, may be use AssertError instead, don't know.

There is patch for form/models.py

milestone: 1.1

Please don't put things in the 1.1 milestone unless they are critical bugs. A perhaps non-ideal error message does not fit into that category.

I can't reproduce this with 1.1 or 1.2.
