The unordered_list template filter suports a format that was seen as old 7 years ago

[ja...@eight.nl]

Today I tried to use the unordered_list template tag with a generator (doesn't work https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2326). While investigating the code I noticed that this filter does a lot of work to support a fairly idiosyncratic form of nested lists (https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/3184). Shouldn't this list format be deprecated by now?

First link is wrong, was missing a zero https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23260

Feel free to submit a ticket and patch that does so.

Are you suggesting to simply nuke the code and the mention in the documentation or should there be some sort of deprecation period? Not sure what the policy of Django on this sort of thing is.

[Tim Graham]

We can use the normal deprecation cycle. I've added a link to the guide of how to do so on the ticket you created: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23261
