Re: Removing formtools from contrib (and call for maintainers)

Python packaging is definitely a lot better than it was and starting to move the contribs to their own repos and packages would be a good thing to do. Regards, Michael Manfre On Fri, Jul 11, 2014 at 8:15 PM, Josh Smeaton wrote: > I think the "blessed packages" idea is

Re: Removing formtools from contrib (and call for maintainers)

I think the "blessed packages" idea is a good one - especially if it entails inclusion into the build/test system. At the moment it is very difficult to know if any changes that are made will affect third party libraries unless you have an extremely good grasp of an entire sub-system (ORM, I'm

Re: Django Meetup in Buenos Aires, Argentina

Hi JC, Great to see some Django activity down in Argentina - Best of luck with the event! As an aside - you might want to send this to django-users rather than django-dev - the audience of django-users is much larger, and includes general users of Django, no just those involved in the

future of @skipIfCustomUser decorator? (#22993)

With the test discovery changes in 1.6, the tests for django.contrib apps are no longer run as part of a user's project. For this reason I believe we no longer need to decorate tests in contrib.auth, formtools, and flatpages with @skipIfCustomUser. Is that correct? If so, should we keep the

Re: Removing formtools from contrib (and call for maintainers)

I think this is a good idea, and I'd be interested in getting involved in this effort. I've been wanting to get more involved so I'll put my name forward for this, and all that it may entail! Greg On Fri, Jul 11, 2014 at 3:52 PM, Tim Graham wrote: > continuing >

Django Meetup in Buenos Aires, Argentina

Hi everyone, We're organizing a Django Meetup in BA on July 25th (7pm, Buenos Aires time). There will be 2 short talks, food and beer. It will be free but limited to 40 people. We already have 24 confirmed attendants and

I would vote for: Remove it from Django and provide no replacement I almost never use original latin lorem-ipsum because language specific dummy-text provides much better and reliable look. I feel that removing the package from django.contrib and keeping it as third-party package (maintained

deprecate contrib.webdesign? (#22789)

It provides the lorem template tag. The functionality has not changed in 7 years and it has 20 commits in its history which are mostly maintenance oriented (pep8, adding app loading compatibility). Options: * Move it into the main template tag library and deprecate the hook in contrib. *

Removing formtools from contrib (and call for maintainers)

continuing https://groups.google.com/d/topic/django-developers/km2xIHM-gIA/discussion under a better subject (was "FormWizard needs confirmation step logic. ticket #21644")... I'd like propose removing formtools from contrib. Reason to move it out: - Allow more maintainers next to Django core
