OK, maybe I'll just wait to see how it pans out, but I think I must be missing something. I can see that you can create a Field for every built in validator and you can create custom Fields instead of custom validators. However none of this seems to cover the problem of *validator lists*. With Manipulators you could have different combinations of validators for any one of your fields, built in or custom. Are you suggesting that we would create a Field for every *combination* of validators that we need to apply to what would otherwise be built in standard Fields. Still seems like too much work here. It seems to be an issue of *creating* all the possible Fields for the validador/validator combination you want rather than just *combining* existing validators to apply to existing Fields. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
