Hi,
I´d like to request a few updates to the djangostack.
Python 2.4.4 to 2.5(or higher)
Django 1.0 to 1.0.2
Especially the Python update might be good idea,as there are a few pluggable apps,which require Python 2.5.(e.g Pinax)

And here are a few “by the way´s” I´d like to mention,too:
1.
The readme on bitami for djangostack is a little bit off.It displays Python 2.5.1 and Sqlite 3.5.1,while it´s Python 2.4.4 and Sqlite 3.5.2. Though the Readme shipped with the stack is correct. imo nothing serious.
2.
If I recall correctly,the following line was missing in django.conf:
“PythonOption django.root /projectname”(without strokes)
Maybe that line was left out intentionally not to cause interferences with other djangostacks (?),yet the line saves me typing the projectname into urls.py.

I hope it´s helpful in any way.

Greetings,
just another dude!

After checking out Djangostack for Linux,it looks like the above mentioned only applies to Djangostack for Windows.(still with Python 2.4.4)
Sorry for not realizing it sooner!

Hi Ansem,

Sorry, your first post went unnoticed :S I can’t remember exactly why Python 2.4 was chosen for Windows, but there were some conflicts with 2.5 that made us select an older version.

The readme is common to all the platforms, that’s why the versions are wrong on Windows. We will look into it, thanks for noticing.

Cheers
