Hello Django Developers,

I've been a longtime user (since before the "newforms-admin" branch) and 
proponent of Django and am the creator and maintainer of Django Admin 
Sortable: https://github.com/iambrandontaylor/django-admin-sortable

I've been fortunate enough in my career to have been able to do Django 
full-time as the former Lead Developer of The Texas Tribune, a Principal 
Developer at USA Today and as a Technical Architect at Inmar in North 
Carolina. So thank you, for such a great framework and for making so many 
years of my life so enjoyable as a developer.

If you're not familiar with Django Admin Sortable, it's a mixin-based way 
to add drag-and-drop ordering to just about any kind of object in Django 
Admin - something I needed to do on basically every Django project I ever 
built. Other popular frameworks such as Keystone.js have drag-and-drop 
ordering baked into them, so why not Django? I'm hoping you could take what 
I've done and not only integrate it, but make it better in ways I couldn't. 
I personally think it would be awesome to simply be able to add a Meta 
property to a model to enable this functionality without having to inherit 
the Mixin.

It would be an honor to be able to contribute to Django's core 
functionality after so many years of using the framework. I'm hopeful 
you'll consider my proposal.

Kindest Regards,
Brandon Taylor
