I have a question about schema migration that is a bit tangential to  
this thread, but it is something I have always wondered about:

Why has it taken so long for Django to acquire this functionality  
when a framework like Ruby on Rails has had it for years? Is there  
something about Django that makes it more difficult to implement? Was  
the Rails implementation hastily added? Is it simply low on the  
priority list?

Just curious.
