It's difficult to give an exact date for the release of Django 1.5. We've
put out 2 beta releases, which means there are no more features to be
added; and the list of release blocking bugs is down to single figures [1].

If I were to guess, I'd say we're less than a month from the final release
of 1.5. However, this is all dependent on how many new release blocking
bugs are discovered between now and then, and the resources that the
community and the core team can devote to getting the release out the door.

Whether that suits your own development schedule is up to you.

The good news is that unless you're planning to use a new feature from 1.5
(e.g., pluggable User models), it shouldn't really matter whether you start
developing using Django 1.4 or Django 1.5. Django has a strict backwards
compatibility policy, so the migration process from 1.4 to 1.5 should be
very smooth.
