* status: closed => reopened * resolution: invalid => Comment: I realize it works this way, but I don't agree that it is the correct behaviour. Based on PEP8, I would claim that this is being implicit, rather than explicit, and not pythonic. Any other field that has a default can be overridden. No explanation as to ''why'' the behaviour is as it is, only that it is, and pointing me to the documentation does NOT make it correct. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/16583#comment:2> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
