Re: Why can't I use this model architecture?

As per the fine manual:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/django-admin/#syncdb

"Syncdb will not alter existing tables

syncdb will only create tables for models which have not yet been
installed. It will never issue ALTER TABLE statements to match changes
made to a model class after installation."
