Hey djangonistas,

I think if I don't get new-admin merged soon, the maintenance will start
to be a headache, and it will block work on trunk. Also a lot of people
are using it for a development branch.

So, please bang on it, peruse the big diff, and merge it when you are
happy...

Functionality wise it achieves quite a bit : see NewAdminChanges on the
wiki. This new functionality should be a good addition to trunk.

New API wise, it wasn't quite the success I'd hoped - there were a few
blockers (core fields especially) that meant some things will have to
wait - in particular "nice" autogenerated forms. It is doable, but there
are still a few hacky bits if you try to use it right now. This can be
fixed in future, but at some point we've got to call it a day on any
particular branches.

There is still a fair amount of refactoring that could be done to make
individual bits more reusable, but this will always be true ;-)

Bits that may be broken: related links, obviously I can't test this. I
think it is a left over bit of Ellington.

dom-drag.js is still not in the repository in trunk or new-admin, and is
needed to make order_with_respect_to work. This feature is very
temperamental in both new-admin and trunk, seemingly on the javascript
side. Not sure if this is browser related or not.
