Since this initial mail last May, I haven't seen any opinions against 
deprecating IPAddressField, on this list or in #20439 [1].

I therefore propose that we start the deprecation of IPAddressField in 1.7, in 
favour of GenericIPAddressField (which was introduced in 1.4). That means 
PendingDeprecationWarning in 1.7, DeprecationWarning in 1.8 and removal in 1.9. 
Obviously, I'll document how users can migrate - even if they don't use South 
it's quite simple.

What do you think?
