Hi John, In case that’s not clear from the answers above, your question roughly translates to “can you do dozens of hours of very boring work and increase your maintenance workload in the future for no discernible benefit to you, just because I ask?” There’s no way that could be met with a positive response.
If you want maintainers to participate in a discussion rather than just find an excuse to brush away the idea, I suggest to say “hello”, explain why you think it’s appropriate for Django to embrace this feature, argument why its benefits are worth the added maintenance cost, and offer to implement it. I hope this helps, -- Aymeric. > On 11 oct. 2015, at 22:31, Florian Apolloner <f.apollo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > No we can't (at least not till we drop python 2).
