Special cases

See generally, http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/Version1.1Roadmap#special-cases.

GeoDjango

GeoDjango features for 1.1 are discussed on the GeoDjango 1.1 wiki page.

Not in consideration

Small/just bugs

Features proposed on this list that area just bugs to be fixed or really tiny feature additions that are not controversial in any way. They're still here for posterity, but have no real role in the feature proposal process.

Rejected procedurally

These are proposed features that, as of the close date for proposals, lacked concrete proposals, proof-of-concept implementations, or details needed to start implementing.

Note: See TracWiki for help on using the wiki.
