Just thought I'd chime in now I've had a chance to look over the current proposal (I looked at the current one you have in the GSOC system):

- When you describe feeding things in from local_fields, are you referring to that being the method by which you're planning to implement things like syncdb?

- I'd like to see a bit more detail about how you plan to test the code - specifically, there are some backend-specific tests you may need, as well as some detailed introspection in order to make sure things have applied correctly.

- Russ is correct about your models approach - as I've said before in other places, the models API in Django is not designed with models as moveable, dynamic objects. South has one approach to these sorts of tests, but I'd love to see a cleaner suggestion.

- There's been some discussion on south-users about the benefits of a column-based alteration API versus a field/model-based alteration API - why have you picked a column-based one? If you plan to continue using Django fields as type information (as South does), what potential issues do you see there?

- Some more detail on your background would be nice - what's your specific experience with the 3 main databases you'll be handling (postgres, mysql, sqlite)? What was a "high voltage database migration"?

Sorry for the late feedback, I've been far too busy.
