Hi all,

We've been talking about moving django.contrib.localflavor into
separate packages, outside of Django proper
(https://groups.google.com/d/topic/django-developers/OiyEGmXTifs/discussion).
Today I did the work of creating the django-localflavor-* packages and
copying code/tests/docs to them.

Now we have 44 django-localflavor-* projects on our Django GitHub
account, and you can see them here:

https://github.com/django

>From now on, please consider django.contrib.localflavor to be READ-ONLY:

* If you have any existing pull requests for localflavor, please close
them and open them again on the appropriate django-localflavor-*
project.

* If you have any existing Trac tickets for localflavor, please close
them and open a pull request on the appropriate django-localflavor-*
project.

* If you're a committer, please don't make changes to
django.contrib.localflavor. You have commit rights on all
django-localflavor-* projects, so commit changes there.

Eventually we'll be removing django.contrib.localflavor, in favor of
these outside packages. I've updated the localflavor docs to note the
new code location and tips on migration:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/localflavor/

Here are the outstanding to-dos with this effort:

* Move/copy translations into the django-localflavor-* packages. This
is outside of my expertise, so does anybody want to take the lead on
this?

* Document a clear way to run the tests for a given
django-localflavor-* package. I moved the tests into the separate
packages, but there's no clear way to run them. Any suggestions?

* Add DeprecationWarning to django.contrib.localflavor in trunk,
before Django 1.5. I will take care of this.

* I'll write up a more formal message for django-users and the
djangoproject.com blog.

Adrian
