When will updatedb be completed?
Do any of you guys when the django-admin.py updatedb command will be completed? updatedb is basically all django is missing for me and many developers at the company I work for to abandon CakePHP and move to django.

As far as I know, none of the core development team are actively working on any form of automated schema evolution. There is a branch, but it is the responsibility of a volunteer who was writing the code; if you're interested in seeing that code completed, the best thing to do is contact the person who was working on it and see about collaborating to finish the work. -- "Bureaucrat Conrad, you are technically correct -- the best kind of correct." --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.

Hey James, Do you have this person's contact info so we can coordinate the completion of that function?

There's actually two branches (schema-evolution and schema-evolution-ng); in addition to those, I can recall at least 2 occasions in the last six months where someone has offered to work on schema-evolution.. Unfortunately, schema evolution seems to be a black hole for contributors. People offer to work on schema evolution, and they are never heard from again... :-) Personally, I'm very keen to see schema evolution done (and done well). I've got a whole lot of other stuff on my plate at the moment, so I wouldn't count on schema evolution emerging from _my_ corner any time soon. However, if some enterprising soul wants to make an effort, I'm happy to help out wherever I can.

It's not completely automatic (since that's impossible), but it's reasonably easy to use.
