Comment (by Surya):
Hi Thibauld and Tom,
I am a new contributor and after looking into issue tracker, I see this as
a ticket that I would love to work on if nobody else is working on it.
In case I get to work on this, I had a couple of questions regarding what
needs to be done. Carlton asked me to ask my question here, so here it
goes.
1. For the suggestion of having explicit instructions on the Django
documentation about the format of the form fields, as described in the
ticket, should I focus on mentioning the default formats for the following
fields -
Date and time fields – DateField, DatetimeField, TimeField,
SplitDateTimeField, DurationField
More technical fields which have very specific formats: SlugField,
JSONField, UUIDField, RegexField, GenericIPAddressField
2. Should the changes in the documentation extend to issues such as #32339
or #32338 on why it should be avoided?
Please forgive me if I have not been able to understand the ticket
responsibility the way it is intended, and I would be very grateful if the
scope of the changes required could be pointed out to me by any senior
member of the community.
Thanks,
Surya
