Description

on http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/tutorial02/
you write:


Customize the admin change list
#...
[...]But you can change that by giving that method a short_description attribute:

def was_published_today(self):
    return self.pub_date.date() == datetime.date.today()
was_published_today.short_description = 'Published today?'

I'm a Python beginner, and for me it is not clear where to put the last line, because in the models.py this def "was_published_today" is a sub method of the Poll class.
But the above code snippet in your tutorial is not intendated, it is no tab in front of it.

At least I don't know where to input that...
(Maybe you'll laugh and say 'learn python' - but the rest of your tutorial is EXCELLENT for absolute beginners as well...)

The django-users list would be a better place for questions like this. The answer is you put it exactly as shown, at the same indent level as the def for the was_published_today method.
