15939	SignedIntegerField / UnsignedIntegerField as part of the core fields.py	Cal Leeming	nobody	"I'd like to place a feature request to see SignedIntegerField and UnsignedIntegerField included as part of the core fields.py ( which will adhere to the 32bit limits.h defaults - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits.h )

There has been some discussion so far in the following threads:

In terms of a use case scenario, I would imagine that most developers are used to working within the restrictions of a 32bit integer, and it would be nice to have this same ability for Django - out of the box.

If this is accepted, I'd be more than willing to submit the code and documentation patch."	New feature	closed	Database layer (models, ORM)	1.3	Normal	wontfix			Design decision needed	0	0	0	0	0	0
