I'm considering using Django for 2 projects. An LFS shop and a site
which will use Pinax. Both high profile Django apps. At this time, the
latest supported Django version for both is 1.3.3. If I understand
correctly, the 1.3 branch of Django will no longer get security
updates after 1.5 releases. The nominal release cycle for Django
appears to be 9 months. And in practice it looks more like 1 year. So
Django 1.5 should be out sometime between December and March. If I
deploy in a month, that means a forced upgrade on both framework and
apps in just 3 to 6 months from launch. And that's assuming that the
apps have versions which support Django 1.4 by that time.
Obviously, I'm missing something here, since no sane organization
would accept such a situation. (It would certainly be a deal-breaker
for us.) But I'm not sure what it is that I'm missing.
