We didn't warn before dropping 2.3 and 2.5, but we did warn before dropping 2.4: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.3/#python-compatibility ""Django 1.3 continues to support Python 2.4, but will be the final Django release series to do so; beginning with Django 1.4, the minimum supported Python version will be 2.5."" In django1.5, we did say we ""highly recommend"" 2.7+. We could repeat that. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.5/#python-compatibility " Cleanup/optimization closed Documentation 1.6-beta-1 Normal fixed Collin Anderson Accepted 1 0 0 0 0 0
