Comment:
This is a vote to get a DurationField (or whatever you want to call it)
into Django 1.4. I'm currently running into this problem in that I need to
represent an iteration length in some task management software I'm
writing, where the length is set by the user and could be anything from a
week to a month to a couple months (even more hilarity since months aren't
consistent lengths). Of course, timedeltas are super-conveniently built
into Python and can handle all of this in a snap...but in Django I have no
way to store them. It's driving me nuts.
Like, come on. If Django is Python, timedelta needs a model field.
Without, it's incomplete.
