-===========================
-Django Deprecation Timeline
-===========================
-
-This document outlines when various pieces of Django will be removed, following
-their deprecation, as per the :ref:`Django deprecation policy
-<internal-release-deprecation-policy>`
-
- * 1.3
- * ``AdminSite.root()``. This release will remove the old method for
- hooking up admin URLs. This has been deprecated since the 1.1
- release.
-
- * Authentication backends need to define the boolean attributes
- ``supports_object_permissions`` and ``supports_anonymous_user``.
- The old backend style is deprecated since the 1.2 release.
-
- * The :mod:`django.contrib.gis.db.backend` module, including the
- ``SpatialBackend`` interface, is deprecated since the 1.2 release.
-
- * 1.4
- * ``CsrfResponseMiddleware``. This has been deprecated since the 1.2
- release, in favour of the template tag method for inserting the CSRF
- token. ``CsrfMiddleware``, which combines ``CsrfResponseMiddleware``
- and ``CsrfViewMiddleware``, is also deprecated.
-
- * The old imports for CSRF functionality (``django.contrib.csrf.*``),
- which moved to core in 1.2, will be removed.
-
- * ``SMTPConnection``. The 1.2 release deprecated the ``SMTPConnection``
- class in favor of a generic E-mail backend API.
-
- * The many to many SQL generation functions on the database backends
- will be removed.
-
- * The ability to use the ``DATABASE_*`` family of top-level settings to
- define database connections will be removed.
-
- * The ability to use shorthand notation to specify a database backend
- (i.e., ``sqlite3`` instead of ``django.db.backends.sqlite3``) will be
- removed.
-
- * The ``get_db_prep_save``, ``get_db_prep_value`` and
- ``get_db_prep_lookup`` methods on Field were modified in 1.2 to support
- multiple databases. In 1.4, the support functions that allow methods
- with the old prototype to continue working will be removed.
-
- * The ``Message`` model (in ``django.contrib.auth``), its related
- manager in the ``User`` model (``user.message_set``), and the
- associated methods (``user.message_set.create()`` and
- ``user.get_and_delete_messages()``), which have
- been deprecated since the 1.2 release, will be removed. The
- :doc:`messages framework </ref/contrib/messages>` should be used
- instead.
-
- * Authentication backends need to support the ``obj`` parameter for
- permission checking. The ``supports_object_permissions`` variable
- is not checked any longer and can be removed.
-
- * Authentication backends need to support the ``AnonymousUser``
- being passed to all methods dealing with permissions.
- The ``supports_anonymous_user`` variable is not checked any
- longer and can be removed.
-
- * The ability to specify a callable template loader rather than a
- ``Loader`` class will be removed, as will the ``load_template_source``
- functions that are included with the built in template loaders for
- backwards compatibility. These have been deprecated since the 1.2
- release.
-
- * ``django.utils.translation.get_date_formats()`` and
- ``django.utils.translation.get_partial_date_formats()``. These
- functions are replaced by the new locale aware formatting; use
- ``django.utils.formats.get_format()`` to get the appropriate
- formats.
-
- * In ``django.forms.fields``: ``DEFAULT_DATE_INPUT_FORMATS``,
- ``DEFAULT_TIME_INPUT_FORMATS`` and
- ``DEFAULT_DATETIME_INPUT_FORMATS``. Use
- ``django.utils.formats.get_format()`` to get the appropriate
- formats.
-
- * The ability to use a function-based test runners will be removed,
- along with the ``django.test.simple.run_tests()`` test runner.
-
- * The ``views.feed()`` view and ``feeds.Feed`` class in
- ``django.contrib.syndication`` have been deprecated since the 1.2
- release. The class-based view ``views.Feed`` should be used instead.
-
- * ``django.core.context_processors.auth``. This release will
- remove the old method in favor of the new method in
- ``django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth``. This has been
- deprecated since the 1.2 release.
-
- * The ``postgresql`` database backend has been deprecated in favor of
- the ``postgresql_psycopg2`` backend.
-
- * The ``no`` language code has been deprecated in favor of the ``nb``
- language code.
-
- * 2.0
- * ``django.views.defaults.shortcut()``. This function has been moved
- to ``django.contrib.contenttypes.views.shortcut()`` as part of the
- goal of removing all ``django.contrib`` references from the core
- Django codebase. The old shortcut will be removed in the 2.0
- release.
