Description (last modified by )
The GeoDjango docs recommend using PostgreSQL 8.3 because PostGIS doesn't support 8.4 yet.
I don't believe this is true anymore. PostGIS provides binary windows installers for 8.3, 8.4, and 9.0, and the docs for both the 1.4 and the 1.5 branches claim to be compatible with every version of Postgres from 8.2 and 8.3 respectively.

Not being a GeoDjango user myself, I'd like to get someone else to confirm this before it gets fixed, but the report looks correct.
That should read "because PostGIS doesn't support Postgres 8.4".
