Having worked on both the revamped tutorial and http://django.2scoops.org , I approve this conversation thread. ;-)

Alas, I replied before your post. I agree with you completely. I'm really looking forward to migrating a few projects up to Python 3 and Django 1.5. It's going to be awesome!

Python 3 support in Django 1.5 is experimental. I would wait until Django 1.6 is launched or there are well-known, well-working examples of Python 3 implementations of Django on high traffic sites.

Django does dominate the Python web framework world. Flask does pretty well as a microframework runner up. Methinks someone who left Python in 2002 is out of touch. ;-)

Thanks for the comments! I'm one of the authors! 1. For Python 2/3 compatibility, we recommend SIX. 2. We recommend using Jinja2 where you need it, not as a replacement. 3. PIL on Python 3 is not yet solved. This is part of the reason why

I'm one of the authors. Your observation about enterprise grade migrations is interesting. We'll see what we can do to add to the book.

by pydanny 14y ago
I'm one of the authors. Most of the book will work with Django 1.4.3. There are some exceptions such as use of the {% url %} template tag, the custom user model, and some other areas.

Our publisher, gumroad, uses Stripe to accept payments. If that doesn't work, we're looking into PayPal, but that might be a few days.

Just so you know, I'm one of the authors. I agree with you 100%. Unfortunately, the tool we used to format the book doesn't do this for us, so we either have to use a third-party product to do it manually OR write a Python script to generat

Yes we do. Admittedly it's one of the few short chapters in the book. We do plan to add more content in either the BETA or FINAL releases.

Working on it!

Alright then, I'm one of the authors of this book. There are chapter and section headers in the book, but we've had a couple people using PDF readers on Linux who don't see them. Can you email me at pydanny@cartwheelweb.com and let me know

That's a very good question...

Than you on both accounts!

I'm one of the authors. Can we use "I find analogies are very helpful for my understanding and the ice cream one is perfect." as a quote on the site?

Honestly, I don't know enough about ePub distribution to answer you. I would love to do that though.

What format does Google Books require?

That's covered of the Chapter 18, which has a Secret Chapter Title.

Coming from you, this really means a lot to the two of us. :-)

We decided that until there are working implementations of Django running on heavily trafficked Python 3 site, it would be best to focus on Python 2.7. Heck, for that matter, Python 3 is experimental in Django 1.5. We wanted to keep our rea

I'm one of the authors. Because of the formatting issues of Kindle and ePub, the negative reviews Python books get when formatting breaks in those formats, we're not sure yet it we'll publish it in mobi/epub. That said, if you have any advi
