7342	Using a new-style class for Meta raises an exception	Marty Alchin	Marty Alchin	"When attempting to use a new-style class for a model's `Meta` inner class (`class Meta(object):`), Django raises a `TypeError` because of two additional attributes that new-style classes have that old-style classes don't.

{{{
TypeError: 'class Meta' got invalid  attribute(s): __dict__,__weakref__
}}}

Admittedly, the documentation only shows old-style classes, but there's no mention of avoiding new-style classes. More to the point, once Python 3000 rolls around, all classes will be new-style by default, and this will become an instant problem."		closed	Database layer (models, ORM)	dev		fixed			Ready for checkin	1	0	0	0	0	0
