Hi everyone, For those who haven't seen, Mozilla has awarded $150,000 to Django for work on Channels and request/response improvements lifted from REST Framework. More in the blog post here: https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2015/dec/11/django-awarded-moss-grant/
I'll be coordinating this effort for the most part, but we're still working out who to fund and the roadmap for the project, as well as work out how we can pay people for their work on a different scale to the Django Fellowship, so it might take a bit of time! I'll be back on here with some questions for people to discuss/answer about the channels design at some point soon, but a lot of the basic design is already up at http://channels.readthedocs.org, so take a read over that if you're interested. What I can say is that my intention is to both bake Channels into the next major release of Django, as well as hopefully release a pluggable app version that will run on 1.8 and 1.9 - I have some plans around how to do that effectively, but they involve hitherto unforged paths around Django and how we package dependencies, so I can't say we'll get there 100%.
