Django 1.0 released!
["No, you're not hallucinating, it's really here.
Around three years ago, Adrian, Simon, Wilson and I released some code to the world. Our plan was to hack quietly on it for a bit, release a solid 1.0 release, and then really get the ball rolling.
Well.
What happened, of course, was that an amazing community sprung up literally overnight — our IRC channel had over a hundred people in it the day after release, and it's never been that 'empty' since. /.../ Django 1.0 represents a the largest milestone in Django's development to date: a web framework that a group of perfectionists can truly be proud of. Without this amazing community, though, it would have never happened."]
