Django patched a regression in second-degree relation rendering across ModelAdmin while rolling out DEP-20's new calendar versioning scheme to the website.

Two critical fixes landed on the core Django repo overnight. The team patched incorrect values for second-degree relations in ModelAdmin.list_display [1], a regression introduced in recent releases that broke BooleanField icon display and ForeignKey value handling [2]. In parallel, a new validation error E323 was added for models referenced by ManyToManyFields [3], closing a gap in the system check framework. Over on djangoproject.com, the download and roadmap pages shipped updates to reflect DEP-20, moving to calendar versioning starting Django 2028 with the format YYYY[.N] [4]. Corporate membership tiers also increased across the board to match the new DSF prospectus: Bronze to $2,200, Silver to $5,500, and Gold to $13,750 [5]. Channels-redis added Python 3.14 support and updated CI workflows [6], keeping pace with upstream Python releases.

Action items

→ Upgrade Django if running second-degree relations in list_display django/django [immediate]
→ Review ModelAdmin implementations for ForeignKey and BooleanField regressions django/django [plan]
→ Monitor channels-redis CI pipeline with Python 3.14 django/channels_redis [monitor]
