Any pointers to documentation / discussion around the rationale for X.2 instead of X.0 or X.1? I'm sure there are very good reasons and would like to read them.

- robertfw 10y agoI haven't seen it discussed but immediately it would appear that it would allow for new features introduced in x.0 to have the kinks worked out in the x.1 and x.2 releases, so the LTS ends up having the new features along with their fixes, and then you can move on to the next batch of bigger features
- collinmanderson 10y agoDjango almost went with X.0 as the LTS. Here's where X.2 was originally proposed: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/django-developers/MTvOPDNQXLI/lBLWrhKJ6DIJ https://groups.google.com/d/msg/django-developers/MTvOPDNQXL... Here's the final summary: https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2015/jun/25/roadmap/ https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2015/jun/25/roadmap/ The most breaking part of the the LTS cycle is right _after_ the LTS, so that's the best time to change the major version number.
