And in some cases, it can be valuable from a pure maintainability standpoint. django.db.models.fields.__init__, for instance, covers many varied cases, and I've already moved the file-related code out into a files.py as part of my work with #5361, just so I could manage it more easily. But then, when there was a ModelForm ticket was solved, in involved a change to FileField, which took entirely too much digging to discover. All in all, I'm +1 on this, but I don't know if it needs to be an absolute, across-the-board mandate. For instance, django.http.__init__ could be split into django.http.request and django.http.response, but I'm not really sure it needs to be done for that case. -Gul --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
