24106	Document backwards incompatible changes to database backend API	Anssi Kääriäinen	nobody	"I believe we don't have a separate ticket for documenting backwards incompatible changes to database backend API. At Django Under the Hood it was agreed that we want to do this.

An idea of how to do this is to log/diff changes to Django's backends between stable/1.7 and master. Going through the changes in Django should give a good approximation of all the breaking changes (another place where breakage is possible is Compiler module).

If possible, I'd like to document the changes in a way that is both backwards and forwards compatible. That is, we give a replacement suggestion that works both in 1.7 and 1.8 (very likely conditional on Django version)."	New feature	closed	Documentation	dev	Normal	wontfix			Accepted	0	0	0	0	0	0
