Comment:
> Instead of datetime.date.today(), this should use timezone.now().date()
I think what you want is `timezone.localtime(timezone.now()).date()`
instead since `timezone.now()` always returns a `datetime` in `UTC`.
IMO `timezone.localtime(timezone.now()).date() if settings.USE_TZ else
datetime.date.today()` would still be a better default then the current
one.
But I have to admit I didn't even know `auto_now` and `auto_now_add`
worked with `DateField` so I'm not sure if we should go forward with this.
