Hi! I would like to ask you to reconsider addition of field representing MAC address. There was similar ticket created 7 years ago: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2239 and it was closed with wontfix.
I use Django in many projects and a lot of them are related to IP networks. In many situations I need to deal with mac addresses (Ethernet addresses in wired networks, wireless radio cards addresses, BSSIDs, radio cards addresses in access points, Bluetooth addresses, etc). PostgreSQL provides native support for macaddr data type: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/datatype-net-types.html#DATATYPE-MACADDRin other databases it can be represented as char(17). If you agree to add new field type I can prepare patch against current code.
