Fixed #12745: The maxlength -> max_length change happened in 2007, we can probably stop mentioning it in the tutorial now.

.. admonition:: Errors about :attr:`~django.db.models.Field.max_length`

   If Django gives you an error message saying that
   :attr:`~django.db.models.Field.max_length` is not a valid argument, you're
   most likely using an old version of Django. (This version of the tutorial is
   written for the latest development version of Django.) If you're using a
   Subversion checkout of Django's development version (see :ref:`the
   installation docs <topics-install>` for more information), you shouldn't have
   any problems.

   If you want to stick with an older version of Django, you'll want to switch
   to `the Django 0.96 tutorial`_, because this tutorial covers several features
   that only exist in the Django development version.

.. _the Django 0.96 tutorial: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/0.96/tutorial01/

The code is straightforward. Each model is represented by a class that
subclasses :class:`django.db.models.Model`. Each model has a number of class
variables, each of which represents a database field in the model.
