Hi Andrew, Great news! Many thanks for sharing this information. I have only one comment regarding Django timelines.
Personally, I prefer less major features per release in order to deliver Django more frecuently (3 releases per year maybe?). I think Django Migrations is one of the most wanted features; the Kickstarter project mentioned that the work itself should be mainly completed by July 2013, and waiting till May-June 2014 for that seems a bit inefficient. Please, don't misunderstood my comment, I think the work of Django team is awesome, I'm just trying to make a suggestion and provide feedback. (Sorry for my awful English) Cheers!
