Nice to see Django moving forward but is still backwards friendly. Love that. "Channels is to become a built-in feature for Django 1.10, but in order to aid adoption and to encourage community usage and support, it will also be backported to Django 1.8 and 1.9 via a third-party app." ASGI seems to be a very important piece of this. "Despite the name of the proposal, ASGI does not specify or design to any specific in-process async solution, such as asyncio, twisted, or gevent. Instead, the receive_many function can be switched between nonblocking or synchronous. This approach allows applications to choose what’s best for their current runtime environment; further improvements may provide extensions where cooperative versions of receive_many are provided."
