Change fields' names in django.contrib.localflavor.pl.forms

Description

I would like to propose backward incompatible change django.contrib.localflavor.pl.forms:

Some classes present in django.contrib.localflavor.pl.forms are named in a werid way - they are neither short and useful, nor offical translations of corresponding numbers.

Old nameNew name
PLNationalIdentificationNumberFieldPLPESELField
PLTaxNumberFieldPLNIPField
PLNationalBusinessRegisterFieldPLREGONField
PLVoivodeshipSelectPLProvinceSelect
PLAdministrativeUnitSelectPLCountiesSelect

Not only Polish people in everyday language use those acronyms, but even Polish officials refer to those numbers as PESEL, REGON and NIP:

I'm willing to prepare the patch if those changes are accepted.

milestone: → 1.0 beta
Triage Stage: Unreviewed → Accepted

Using the "correct" names sounds right and, failing any other indication, the common usage is correct. So this seems reasonable. I'll get it in before the beta.

comment:2 by Piotr Lewandowski <django@…>, 16 years ago

Malcolm, can you also take a look at ticket #8197? Are there any chances to get that in before the beta?

PLCountiesSelect (aka PLAdministrativeUnitSelect) is using outdated counties list - I don't know whether it's worth filling separate ticket.

In the long run, fields like PLProvinceSelect, PLCountiesSelect and not-yet-existing PLCommunesSelect and PLCitiesSelect could use data from pl_regions.py introduced in #8197 so they'd be up-to-date. I may prepare a path combining this feature and issues mentioned in #8197 and #8276.

#8197 is unrelated to this ticket. Adding new stuff like that can wait, since there are design questions there.

(In [8345]) Fixed #8276 -- Changed the names of a few Polish localflavor classes to match
their common names/acronyms, similar to other localflavors.

Backwards incompatible if you're using these classes.

My mistake - PLCountiesSelect should be rather named PLCountySelect - to be coherent with ro and uk localflavors.
