+1 I know there is a commitment to keep trunk as stable as possible, but if there is a push for moving forward quickly, this is the way to go.

Porting from the current admin to nfa was very straightforward too. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
