Hey Djangonauts,
With the first patch release for Django 6.0 under our belts, it’s time to look ahead to our next feature release: Django 6.1. You can find the timeline in the roadmap page.
Believe it or not, we’re already halfway through the feature development phase! Some major features that have already landed include model field fetch modes and database-level delete options. (As always, there are too many minor features to call out individually, but those are much appreciated as well
.)
The live report of features that are ready for review can be found here.
If you are working on something that is nearly ready, feel free to share it here. (This might even be your chance to arrange a “review swap” with someone!) We are happy to support progress where we can.
Please keep in mind that not every in-progress feature will make it into this release, and anything that does not land will be reconsidered for future feature releases.
As always, testing the main branch, reporting bugs, reviewing tickets, and providing feedback on new feature proposals makes a big difference. Thanks to everyone who’s able to help!
