-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Django 2.0 released, and what it means to you Date: Tue, 5 Dec 2017 09:19:39 +0100 From: Matthias Runge mrunge@matthias-runge.de To: devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
Hello,
tl;dr if you're not maintaining/using a Django related package, you can safely skip this message.
Django 2.0 was released quite recently. While it is mostly compatible with earlier versions, the SIGNIFICANT change is, to drop support for Python 2.
I'm intending to update Django in Rawhide to 2.0 in 2 weeks. If you're maintaining a package depending on Django, please make sure to disable the python2 subpackage. Please keep in mind, you'll also need proper obsoletes.
If there is any bug, blocker, whatever connected to this change, please make also sure to report it in bugzilla and make your bug a blocker for[1].
Thank you, Matthias
