Give the project away?

Hi,

I've noticed this project is not maintained anymore, besides forking and creating a django-adaptors-2 on PyPI what do you think about giving the project away to the community? We could create a organization, include you and other potential new contributors.

Thanks for your consideration.

Regex validation in XMLCharField

Can you add the ability to validate using a regex, eg::
XMLCharField(path='/some/path', regex='^Z[0,2]')

This is more flexible that offering choices.

Please make python3-compatible release

I'm running the git-master version with django 1.8/python3 without problems for some time.
It would be nice to have a version 0.26 with the python3 patches included.
Thanks a lot!

nullable field does not accept None as default

in the fields.py the method get_prep_value contains the following code:

...
        if not value and self.null and self.default is not None:
            value = self.default
        else:
            value = self.to_python(value)

...

this generates an exception in the following scenario:

• the field is a DateField
• the field is marked as null=True and has default=None

but I would expect it to not generate any exception: I simply desire to have a datefield which is null if not specified in the csv file. at the moment I patched the code as follows:

        if not value and self.null:
            value = self.default
        else:
            value = self.to_python(value)

which behaves as I expect. I thought you may desire to have it in your code, as I didn't find any other way to specify that a DateField can be optional in the csv file.

error occured when define exclude = ['name1','name2']

as i understand the exclude should be a list. but when i define the exclude = ['name1','name2'], error occurs as follows:
append() takes exactly one argument (2 given)
Exception Location: ...../lib/python2.7/site-packages/adaptor/model.py in get_exclusion_fields, line 312
i think the code should be changed to :
if hasattr(cls, "Meta") and hasattr(cls.Meta, "exclude"):
list_exclusion.extend(cls.Meta.exclude)

Doesn't work with namespaces in the root element

There doesn't appear to be a way to define namespaces for XPath, or to specify a root element that is namespaced, e.g.

<ns0:thing xmlns:ns0="http://example.com/blah" number="xxxx">

if the foreinkey can be NULL, how to use DjangoModelField ?

i think the docuement should be updated. DjangoModelField not mentidoned at the doc, bu instead of ForeignKey.
if a foreinkey definition can be NULL, how to deal with this secnario ?
maybe DjanogModelField.to_python() can be changed.
