* The API now more closely matches a proper file API. This unfortunately means a few backwards-incompatible renamings; see BackwardsIncompatibleChanges. This refs #7593.
* While we were at it, renamed chunk() to chunks() to clarify that it's an iterator.
* Temporary uploaded files now property use the tempfile library behind the scenes which should ensure better cleanup of tempfiles (refs #7593 again).
Thanks to Mike Axiak for the bulk of this patch.

A description of the new features can be found in the new [http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/upload_handing/ upload handling documentation]; the executive summary is that Django will now happily handle uploads of large files without issues.
This changes the representation of uploaded files from dictionaries to bona fide objects; see BackwardsIncompatibleChanges for details.

This has been the documented behaviour for ages, but it wasn't correctly
implemented. A required BooleanField must be True/checked, since False values
aren't submitted. Ideal for things like "terms of service" agreements.
Backwards incompatible (since required=True is the default for all fields).
Unclear who the original patch was from, but Tai Lee and Alex have kept it up
to date recently.

The previous change was failing Django's "check for well-formed domain name"
validation, rather than failing on the network side. Providing we don't ever
set up www.broken.djangoproject.com as a valid domain name, this change should
let us control our own destiny.
