How to set Django BooleanField's default value?

Question

I have a BooleanField in a Django 1.2 form.

I'm setting for it default=True but it is still unchecked in the browser by default.

Googling for it shows that some people are using initial=True, but this breaks the code for me completely (unrecognized keyword "initial").

Any ideas?
