I don't think it's unreasonable of people to wait until there is an announcement of future stability, which is effectively what 1.0 will represent. At the moment I would agree that (even) more people could probably use the trunk version for production systems, but it's human nature for some people to crave stability and want to avoid changing code to keep in step with current versions, so they stay away from Django because they know that /something/ is due to change, though they may not know the details of newforms admin or queryset refactoring. We can probably agree that the sooner 1.0 comes out the better it will be for Django takeup, but that doesn't mean a compromise on quality is acceptable. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +1 571 484 6266 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC http://www.holdenweb.com/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
