Django 0.95 Upgrade
I've just completed upgrading four of my sites to Django 0.95.
Man, that kind of sucked. It's part of the problem of being an early adopter, I suppose. A lot has changed as part of removing the magic. There is a sort of upgrade procedure, but I found it easier to just rewrite all of my applications from scratch and manually do my database migrations to clean databases.
Don't get me wrong, things are still yet even cooler now, but it was a lot of work to get things appearing to work. I've still got a bit more work before everything is fully functional on all of the sites.
I would still recommend Django to people looking to make dynamic web sites. There's a pretty decent Google Tech Talk that will give a good overview, as well as the wonderful documentation they have up at their site.
Anyone who might be getting an RSS feed will probably notice everything appears to be new. It was slightly broken before, but I never realized until I broke it worse during my upgrade. All the URLs are now correct, which also means they're different, so now everything looks new. Sorry.
