Try this: create a django/utils/checksums.py file and put it in there.
It may be useful in more than just form validation (otherwise it could
go in newforms/utils.py). I suspect we might see some more weighted
checksums in the future, too (such as the Norwegian social security
number) and we can extract out the general algorithm into that file at
some point.
