[PKG-Openstack-devel] Fwd: [Python-modules-team] Packaging Django v1.8 for Sid?

[Turbo Fredriksson]

I’ve been trying to get someone of the Django developers to create a v1.8 and/or
v1.9 package of python-django, but isn’t get much headway.

They have a point, but it would be a shame if someone don’t fix Horizon to work
with 1.10.

This is the last in the thread.
