Release to support Django 1.6

[santagada]

The error:
" ImproperlyConfigured: Error importing module debug_toolbar.middleware: "No module named defaults" "

was fixed in master, but there was no release since then, and django 1.6 is going to be rc in 2 weeks.

+1. Why so much movement on this repo, but no PyPI releases for more than a year and a half?

Agree. The deprecation warning in 1.5 was already a bother to my team on version 1.5 (which has been out six months). These issues are already fixed, we just need a release.

Are there any roadblocks? What's the missing piece of the puzzle here?

+1 Strong on this one

Thanks everyone for your encouragements. I've just been given commit access to the repository and I'm going to push towards a release compatible 1.6.

In the meantime, since this ticket doesn't track any actionable items (such as a patch), I'm going to close it. I hope you understand.

Call me out in three months if there hasn't been a release and I'll reopen it :)

[santagada]

I didn't get it, you are closing the bug so that we have to remember to ask again in 3 months? Why not make a release now... we are all already using the repo directly it would make more sense to just release it.

[aaugustin]

The list of issues is so long that maintenance has stalled. I'm removing from the list tickets without actionable items. That's all!

Supporting Django 1.5 requires supporting Python 3. I plan to do that in the coming weeks. Then I'll ask someone with the keys to PyPI to push a release.

@aaugustin Other than Python 3 support, are there any other issues blocking a new release on PyPi?

[aaugustin]

I'm not aware of any other blockers.

[santagada]

Is there somewhere that to support django >= 1.5 you need to support python 3? Because I don't think that is sane, it puts too much work on django extensions/apps.

[aaugustin]

After porting about 60% Django itself to Python 3, I think I can handle porting the Debug Toolbar ;-)
