+Loading some incomplete fixtures no longer works
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Prior to 1.4, a default value was inserted for fixture objects that were missing
+a specific date or datetime value when auto_now or auto_now_add was set for the
+field. This was something that should not have worked, and in 1.4 loading such
+incomplete fixtures will fail. Because fixtures are a raw import, they should
+explicitly specify all field values, regardless of field options on the model.
