django-watson 1.1.3 is now available on GitHub and PyPi. It features better support for punctuation in queries, and the ability to rebuild search indices for specific models.

Model historylinks are no longer updated on fixture loading, fixing edge-case issues with multi-table inheritance.

django-reversion was my first open-source contribution to Django, and has become the de-facto solution for model data version control. It's good to give something back to the ecosystem that has taught me so much.

Even better, much of it's recent development has been carried out by the community. Congrats to everyone who has helped carry it through six major releases of Django. It's been an awesome ride!

The Spingo competition is over, and all the prizes have been drawn. Didn't win anything? No doubt more games and competitions will be coming soon from Ladbrokes and Mohawk!

The latest release of django-herokuapp provides a Django 1.6-compatible project template, as well as a new heroku_audit management command for diagnosing common heroku deployment bugs.
