14320	MySQL documentation needs to note lack of support for timezone info...	RantyDave	nobody	"The current (5.1.50) version of MySQL has no support for timezone information in date fields. Python does and an attempt to write a models.DateTimeField that contains timezone information fails and throws a ValueError('MySQL backend does not support timezone-aware datetimes.',).

All I'm suggesting is that the documentation at http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/ref/databases/#notes-on-specific-fields makes note of this."		closed	Documentation	1.2		fixed	MySQL datetime DateTimeField		Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
