** Description changed:

  Upstream bug 15496 fixes a critical problem where multipart messages
  were not getting base64 decoded.  It is required as a pre-requisite to
  backporting maas to precise.
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ This is functionality required as part of the MAAS Next Steps blueprint [1], 
in order to be able to SRU various new fixes to MAAS in precise. This 
functionality fixes a critical problem, of not enconding multipart messages to 
base64. This has been fixed in upstream django 1.3, and the fix is included in 
1.4.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ This has been tested against MAAS. To test this we simply need to branch the 
MAAS branch which is being prepared for the SRU, and make sure all tests pass. 
Tests will fail when this SRU has not being installed. Test will pass when this 
feature is backported.
+ 
+ 1. bzr branch lp:~maas-maintainers/maas/1.2 maas-sru
+ 2. cd maas-sru
+ 3. make test
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Minimal. This is functionality that produces minimal impact to django. On the 
other hand, the maas-maintainers team has committed to address any related 
issues and maintain it from this point forward.
