Django 1.2 alpha 1 released

[jsdalton]

The smart "if" template tag (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.2-alpha-1/#s...) was quite the welcome surprise for me in the release notes! I swear I've written a dozen custom template tags all because it wasn't possible to perform simple comparisons in the if condition.

What would be really smart is if they just allowed Python code there.

Excellent news. readonly_fields and the new messages framework will be quite handy. Not to mention improved {% if %}. Solid work.

multiple database connections is going to be my favorite new feature: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/multi-db/
