Hi Francisco; By all clues I have heard from the Django devs they are working hard at getting a full 1.0 release. There are still two major branches that need to be merged in with the trunk, QuerySet Refactoring and then Newforms-admin. Then, due to the stringent requirements of the core devs, there is going to be a feature lock as the bugs and kinks are worked out. The entire community is anxiously awaiting the release, but would not wish to rush the process. I would say the process as it is is working quite well.
That being said the features in Newforms (not newforms-admin) are fairly stable at this point. I know there are a few projects (Newforms-admin) that have features that will trickle into the main forms code, but newforms as it stands now most likely will stand until the 1.0 release. Living on the django trunk is really stable. In fact a lot of production sites use django trunk and are remarkably stable. The documentation is generally kept up to date and the features really make my life a breeze. I have been using newforms in all of my projects quite extensively for the last 8 months or so and can say I have had very few gotchas. The gotchas that you are having do they have to do with documentation? If they are code gotchas pass them on here because they might be bug. The community here is pretty good at writing patches. If it has to do with documentation let this group help you out. The community are the authors of the documentation. Hopefully helpful, Michael On Mon, Mar 24, 2008 at 6:45 PM, Francisco Benavides <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > I am a newbie learning Django, using newforms, yet I am coming across > many gotchas because I am using 0.97-pre.
