Hi,

I need help on the topic: Proxy for User model referenced as 
AUTH_USER_MODEL.

As stated in the doc, needing to add some methods to User model, I tried to 
make a 'proxy' model.

I made a 'from scratch app', with only a MyUser(User) model, and 
AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'myapp.MyUser' in settings.py
MyUser has only 'class Meta: proxy = True'

On a ./manage.py shell (for example), I have the following traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
>   File "./manage.py", line 22, in <module>
>     execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)

Anybody already tried to use proxy on User model?

Thanks,
