Re: Query regarding Google Summer Of Code

Hello Muskan, "We're still going to be strict with what we accept - you'll need to provide a *strong use case* for your idea and show that it would be *useful to a majority of developers* or *significantly improve* the development of Django itself." This is from the wiki page

Re: Replace the default django test runner to a more robust testing framework (like pytest)

Hi Diptesh, This is a great idea! (And one that has had a fair bit of discussion). I don't think anyone holds an opinion against supporting pytest as a testing tool, but I believe the main hurdle is laying a convincing argument why this support should be in Django Core versus remaining in its

Re: The blacklist / master issue

I'd argue that since Django is an international framework, we should strive to set an international standard. If a certain word is off-putting or problematic to individuals in our community, and if it does not convey an accurate and least astonishing meaning to a non-native English speaker, then

Re: Proposal for Table Functions

I'm not an expert or even an amateur at the ORM, but here are my thoughts on the matter: 1. Does it carry over well across the four databases? 2. Is it necessary to include it as part of core versus a third-party app? 3. What specific use case will benefit from adopting this idea? I ask the

GSoC Proposal to extend the parallel test runner to Windows and macOS and to support Oracle parallel test running

Django's parallel test runner works through forking processes, making it incompatible on Windows by default and incompatible in macOS due to a recent update. Windows and macOS both support spawn and have it enabled by default. Databases are cloned for each worker. To switch from fork to spawn,

Re: [Feature Request] Having an middleware to be able to force authentication on views by default

I completely agree with what has already been said by everyone here; moreover, this is a battery missing from Django in my opinion. It would make Django more "batteries-included" if this was part of core rather than third party-libraries. If you need help with documentation, I can definitely
