DJANGO 6.1 SUPPORT DATES SET AS DOCUMENTATION CLEANUP CONTINUES
By RepoJournal · Filed · About Django
Django pins end-of-support windows for 6.1 while the core team documents shared features between ModelAdmin and InlineModelAdmin.
The Django team added expected end of support dates for 6.1 [1], clarifying the maintenance window for the latest stable release. On the documentation front, James Aylett expanded the InlineModelAdmin reference guide [2] with additional shared options that mirror ModelAdmin's capabilities, "a small number that seem most useful as references back to the ModelAdmin explanations" [2]. In parallel infrastructure work, djangoproject.com shipped a new delete_unactivated_users management command [3] to handle spam user cleanup, while djangogigs.com went live with BSD 3-Clause licensing and DNS configuration [4] [5]. Across the three repos, 6 commits and 2 PRs landed in this cycle, all routine maintenance and documentation improvements with no breaking changes.
