Hi,

I'm maintaining a website which was developed based on Django 0.97 (extra packages: basic, tagging).
I've searched to get that specific version of Django but no results yet. I've also tried several revisions of Django svn (from 2007-08-01 to 2008-07-22) but still got some errors from backward incompatibles. For instance, some (early ones) got no max_length attribute, some got no HIROZONTAL attr, ...etc.

Can you give some suggestions about that? Where can I get stable releases of Django 0.97 ?


Thanks,
Ethan

There was never a 0.97 release. Between April of 2007 (shortly after 0.96 was released) and July of 2008 (when 1.0 alpha was released), SVN checkouts reported the version as something like '0.97-pre', but there was never an official 0.97 release. The next official major release after 0.96 was 1.0.

There were many backwards-incompatible changes made during this time, in the run-up to 1.0. Without an SVN reversion number for the '0.97' release the code you have is supposed to work with, I think it's going to be hard to find a "matching" level of code.
