The Django Python web-framework
project has announced
that it has accepted an annual
release cycle proposal. This means that the project is moving from a somewhat complicated schedule that interspersed short-lived feature releases and long-term-support (LTS) releases to a simpler annual cycle where each release is
supported for three years.
Every feature release gets three years of support: one year of mainstream bugfixes, then two years of security and data-loss fixes. The "LTS" label is retired - every feature release now carries that same, unique commitment.
No more LTS gap: no racing a deadline to jump two years of changes at
once. Upgrade one year at a time, whenever suits you within the support
window. Three versions are supported at any time, giving third-party packages a clear, rolling target.
This will take effect with the upcoming Djangoÿ2028 release, expected in Januaryÿ2028.
