Keep up the good work!

An upgrade tutorial for anyone using .95 would be good - also, don't forget to change the link on the home page and such to reflect the latest release.

Yes, an update tutorial would be good, in fact, how would I *properly* upgrade from 0.95 to the development version?

Brett Parker January 21, 2007 at 7:32 p.m.

The 0.95 -> 0.95.1 upgrade is really just security fixes, so you just use the 0.95 code you already had in the 0.95.1 environment.

For upgrades to the svn trunk (completely different beast to 0.95.1), the usual place to look for instructions is http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/Ba... - that gets updated with anything that needs to be done to keep in line with new releases and a track of what's changed between the last release and trunk. Assume that minor releases (like 0.95.1) have none of the changes in that are documented in the "After 0.95" section, the point releases are just security fixes, and should not introduce changes to the way the code works.

(Or at least, that's my understanding of the situation, James maybe able to tell you otherwise)

As Brett pointed out, 0.95.1 is really a minor bugfix release to deal with a couple security issues; upgrading from 0.95 to 0.95.1 shouldn't require any changes to your own code.

Migrating to 0.95.1 from 0.91 or 0.90 is a different matter, of course; the "removing the magic" wiki page has detailed information on everything that changed between 0.91 and 0.95: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/Re...

Could someone clarify if my understanding is incorrect: I'm running the development version from subversion, and regularly run "svn update" to get the latest code (on a side note, congrats to the developers for the stability of the developmental code, I definitely have no issues running it). They way I understand it is that the latest development version will have the latest bug and security fixes, and certainly any fixes in a numbered release. Therefore, I won't need to do anything other than "svn update". Is this correct?

Michael Radziej January 23, 2007 at 5:35 a.m.

Yes, svn update includes all security fixes.

Great to see new django releases! Even 0.00.1 increments :)

Does this fix include those ever popular patches for user password creation (so folks don't have manually enter their own hashes)? Those features are so popular it'd be nice to roll them into an official release ;-)

Thanks to everyone involved in the release and keep up the great work.

Adrian Holovaty January 29, 2007 at 6:06 p.m.

Graham: No, this release doesn't include that. That improvement will be in our 0.96 release.

Bennet January 30, 2007 at 8:37 p.m.

Does anyone have a rough idea of when version 0.96 and 1.0 will be released?

Frankie Robertson January 31, 2007 at 7:41 a.m.

I'm pretty sure it's one of these "when it's ready things". The core devs won't let it take too long and you can help it go faster by triaging tickets. Either that or run the development version, which is generally better than waiting.
