Here is the fourth update with a week to go until alpha. At this time, I am thinking we'll have the feature freeze on Monday, January 12 as planned, but perhaps issue the actual alpha release a couple days later just to give some time for some extra polish in case any large patches are committed next weekend.
#23861 - <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23861> Fields referenced in migrations cannot be (re)moved, even if migrations have been squashed <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23861> #23891 <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23891> - Revise deprecation / removal timeline for IPAddressField <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23891> (resolved) Owner: Tim Now: I committed a patch for the second ticket and will polish the patch for the first issue. Last time: I've implemented the system check solution I proposed and am waiting for review and/or concerns with this approach. After completing the issue above, I'll prioritize any issues here: https://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=assigned&status=new&keywords=~1.8-alpha Resolved since last time: #22340 - <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/22340> Legacy Table Creation Methods Not Properly Deprecated <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/22340> Owner: Tim Now: Resolved this by removing the deprecation as discussed in the ticket. Last time: I took a closer look at this and don't think we need to do this deprecation at all as it doesn't seem to offer any benefits. See the ticket for details. #23745 - Migrations migrate is slow <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23745> Owner: Claude/Markus Now: Patch committed; thanks to Markus and Claude. Last time: I committed the test that Markus wrote and Claude incorporated a fix from Markus so the branch appears about ready for merge. Markus will give it another review. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
