Well, a little after schedule, Django 1.1 has been released, and I am pleased to say, it does appear I have had to make a total of zero changes to my code.
I may make a few minor changes at some point to take full advantage of aggregation. It seems to make senses to put some more back onto the database layer, where possible.
Two things I am a little bit disappointed not seeing (both actually were mentioned by Cal Henderson "Why I hate Django" at the 2008 djangocon)
- SELECT * FROM
- Not limiting the update query to just the modified fields
However those two points said, Django is still an amazing framework, and I'm not changing any time soon.
I would recommend reading over http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.1/ which covers a number of key points to django 1.1.
I am going to be adding more to this site soon, honestly, but work does keep getting in the way.
