Dear All,

We want upgrade our software from Django0.95 to Django1.1. The latest available release is Django 1.1.1. Have few queries:
- What is difference between Django 1.1 and Django1.1.1
- I could not find link to download Django1.1 unless its same as that of Django1.1.1
- Which one is better between 1.0 and the latest release?

Any feedback on 1.1 for production software is appreciated.

Regards,
Mike

1.1.1 remedies a security issue in 1.1 (http://www.djangoproject.com/
weblog/2009/oct/09/security/), so while technically the two versions
are different, there's no reason to run any 1.1 release other than
1.1.1.

As for whether 1.0 (which was patched at the same time to 1.0.4) or
1.1 is better, 1.1 includes several features not in 1.0. You can find
details in the release notes (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/
releases/1.1/), but some of these include new capabilities within the
admin, additional QuerySet methods (e.g., deferred fields, aggregate
queries and annotations) and URL namespaces.

HTH,
Justin

I recently migrated quite big live service from 1.0.2 to 1.1.1
and I didn't observe even single migration-related problem.
It was probably the smoothest upgrade I had in a few years.
But I remember migrating from 0.9 to 1.0 and that wasn't as smooth
as 1.0->1.1.

From the sound of it, this was a configuration problem on your system,
and not an issue with Django (any time deleting an older copy of code
"fixes" a problem, this is the case).
