I try to address the key points in the Kickstarter, but essentially South is too fragile (it relies on exactly linear histories) and too verbose (bakes the entire ORM state into every migration) - the main point is to fix those.
It's also worth pointing out that this IS the built-in schema migration that's going in in 1.6 or 1.7.

- kmfrk 14y agoAlright, alright, have my money then. :)
- antihero 14y agoAre you going to do something about fields needing dependencies? So say you have a django-tinymce field in one of your migrations but remove it later, South will currently still depend on django-tinymce, even though in the database it's just a text field.
