The instruction on the download page indicates the availability of Django
1.6a1 via pip however, it seems that someone forgot to push the package to
PyPi.

Comment:

I believe that's an issue of the download page itself, not with the
packaging.

The view that renders this page can be found there:
https://github.com/django/djangoproject.com/blob/master/releases/views.py#L9-L40

Replying to [comment:1 bmispelon]:
The views.py is fine.
From download.html
(https://github.com/django/djangoproject.com/blob/master/templates/releases/download.html#L41),
it appears the preview_version should also be uploaded to PyPI, but I'm
not sure.

Comment (by aaugustin):

No, preview_version shouldn't be uploaded to PyPI, otherwise `pip install
Django` would install it.

This is a bug in the website, not in the release process.
