Comment (by Aymeric Augustin):
django-developers is the right place for discussing app loading. See
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/django-developers/app-
loading%7Csort:date/django-developers/_iggZzrYtJQ/FWFPgCflSnkJ for the
last episode.
Unfortunately this is a poor example of open-source development. App-
loading is such a complex issue that I felt unable to handle it fully in
public. Instead I had lots private discussions with a small group of
active core devs, I merged patches once I had a rough agreement from that
group, and I handled complaints after the fact. Apparently enough people
felt the result was worth it that I didn't get kicked out but I decided I
wouldn't do that again.
Anyway, that mailing list discussion provides some context. You should
make sure you understand why the app registry population is designed the
way it is before attempting to change it. You should also demonstrate that
you have reviewed past issues related to app loading order and especially
unstable import ordering.
