Hi folks, Apologies in advance if this topic has already been raised. I don't believe I've seen it on the list since I've been subscribed.
Since Django 1.5 has set the minimum version of Python at 2.6, and in conjunction with the push to make Django more Python 3 compatible, should we slowly start migrating to the new format string [1] syntax? The Python docs state that it is the new standard in Python 3, and should be preferred to the old %-style formatting. The %-style was supposed to be deprecated in Python 3.1. Whilst I'm a little vague on whether it's been officially deprecated yet, it is slated to be removed from Python altogether at some point. The new str.format() method is supported by Python 2.6 onwards. 1: http://docs.python.org/library/string.html#format-string-syntax -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
