- ============================================
- Django 1.5 release notes - UNDER DEVELOPMENT
- ============================================
- These release notes cover the `new features`_, as well
- as some `backwards incompatible changes`_ you'll want to be aware of
- when upgrading from Django 1.4 or older versions. We've also dropped some
- features, which are detailed in :doc:`our deprecation plan
- </internals/deprecation>`, and we've `begun the deprecation process for some
- features`_.
- .. _`new features`: `What's new in Django 1.5`_
- .. _`backwards incompatible changes`: `Backwards incompatible changes in 1.5`_
- .. _`begun the deprecation process for some features`: `Features deprecated in 1.5`_
- Python compatibility
- ====================
- Django 1.5 has dropped support for Python 2.5. Python 2.6 is now the minimum
- required Python version. Django is tested and supported on Python 2.6 and
- 2.7.
- This change should affect only a small number of Django users, as most
- operating-system vendors today are shipping Python 2.6 or newer as their default
- version. If you're still using Python 2.5, however, you'll need to stick to
- Django 1.4 until you can upgrade. Per :doc:`our support policy
- </internals/release-process>`, Django 1.4 will continue to receive security
- support until the release of Django 1.6.
- As Jython does currently not offer any version compatible with Python 2.6,
- Django 1.5 does not run on Jython.
- What's new in Django 1.5

- itercompat.product
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The :func:`~django.utils.itercompat.product` function has been deprecated. Use
- the builtin `itertools.product` instead.
