Comment (by akaariai): Django assumes in some places that app_name.model_name is unique key (IIRC things like contenttypes, permissions and app-cache assume this). I think if you happen to have somepackage.app1.User and otherpackage.app1.User you will have problems. That being said backwards compatibility could be a bigger concern that making sure the above doesn't happen. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/12288#comment:33> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
