django.db.utils.OperationalError: (1071, 'Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes')
This is happening because my database is setup as InnoDB / utf8.
When I look at the migration I notice this ... max_length=350, ...
InnoDB / utf8 can only handle max_length of 255.
Changing the max_length to 255 will resolve this problem.
I can create a pull request for this change but this will require the update of the migration file.
(That only effects new installations)
