are you saying that django-evolution does not support migrating between
"versions"  (ie up and down)?

I'm mostly trying to get an idea of what migration frameworks django
devopers use, and why they prefer it.

A fixed migration is the code run to get from one step to another.
Migrations uses the, maybe at some point you needed to add an extra
table to the db. Then you could write a migration that would add the
table if you wanted to progress or delete the table if you wanted to
get back. You would have that list with app and when you install the
app elsewhere you could choose at which point in the migration history
you wanted your database in. Maybe for some testing you needed the
database like it was at some point. Evolution works differently, it
looks at the db and compares it to the models and the try to make the
changes needed when you run syncdb. So in order to controll evolutions
you would need to change to model fields.
