[ANNOUNCE] Django 1.6 release candidate available

[James Bennett]

It's almost here!

Tonight we've issued a release candidate for Django 1.6. Information, including links to downloads and release notes, is available on the Django project blog:

Looks like an awesome release coming up! Big thanks to the Django team :) Looking forward to trying it out.

One comment about the fact that set_password() now (correctly) makes blank passwords valid. I could imagine some users have assumed that set_password('') was the same as set_unusable_password(). It might be worth noting more prominently in the release notes since if this is the case, there are obvious security implications.

Kudos for making this happen!

Small discrepancy: the blog post states python 2.7 is required; the release notes it links to state python 2.6.5 is still supported, and 2.7 will be required from Django 1.7 onwards.

I've updated the blog post. Thank you.

I think I have missed something or migrations will not be part of this release?

I have not found it on release notes.

Thanks

Migrations landed after the feature freeze for the beta and are not quite feature complete yet. They will be part of 1.7.

I have found the answer in the migrations docs [1], there says that will be 1.7.

Sorry
