New description:
Compatibility with Python 2 is currently being removed in master as part
of the Django 2.0 development cycle: see #23919.
However third-party apps may want to remain compatible with all supported
version of Django and the corresponding versions of Python, which includes
Python 2.
To allow this, compatibility functions or modules aren't removed. They're
still importable. They're usually just aliases or no-ops. Here's a list of
things to deprecate and remove eventually:
- django.utils.six
- django.utils.lru_cache
- django.utils._os.abspathu, upath, npath
- django.utils.decorators.available_attrs
- django.utils.encoding.python_2_unicode_compatible
- django.utils.encoding.smart/force_text
- django.utils.http.urlquote/urlquote_plus/urlunquote/urlunquote_plus
([https://github.com/django/django/pull/7906/commits/5861ce799ddb3f5912f9e16503d4239fa9d80e66
unmerged commit])
- django.utils.safestring.SafeBytes
- One of either
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/9718fa2e8abe430c3526a9278dd976443d4ae3c6/django/utils/safestring.py#L61
django.utils.safestring.SafeString] or django.utils.safestring.SafeText
- django.test.utils.str_prefix()
