27166	Documentation clarification of warning for using cache-based sessions	Dolan Antenucci	nobody	"In the 1.10 version of the [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/http/sessions/#using-cached-sessions Using cache sessions] documentation, it warns the user that, ""You should only use cache-based sessions if you’re using the Memcached cache backend.""  

From what I understand, other cache backends like Redis work as well as Memcached for this use case. Assuming my understanding is correct, the documentation should be updated to reflect this.

If I'm incorrect, perhaps add a note about why Redis is not a viable candidate."	Cleanup/optimization	closed	Documentation	1.10	Normal	worksforme			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	1	0
