Add ModelWithFieldAttributes *before* PolyModel, so that everything does not become a "ModelWithFieldAttributes" in the Datastore. The way PolyModel works, each Model class hierarchy is stored in the Datastore as the class that directly inherited from PolyModel. So, we do not want to insert ModelWithFieldAttributes *after* PolyModel by inheriting *from* PolyModel, or everything would just be a ModelWithFieldAttributes in the Datastore, instead of Person, Work, Group, etc.

Third-party code that is *not* part of the application image (the Google App
Engine SDK in trunk/thirdparty/google_appengine, for example) belongs in
trunk/thirdparty.  For third-party code that *is* part of the application
image, see the notes in trunk/app/README.

== THIRD PARTY LICENSES ==

Third-party code must also include a license text file, named LICENSE or
COPYING, in the package subdirectory.  If the third-party package subdirectory
is maintained automatically with a tool such as svn_load_dirs.pl (which
removes files, such as license text files, that were added later to the
"target" directory), place the license text file in the trunk/app directory
and add the package name as a suffix.
