Which python-django version for yakkety?

Hi All,

python-django in yakkety is currently at 1.8.7 while sid is at 1.10.  I
think we need to carefully consider whether we want to update python-django
in yakkety at this point in time (we're 16 days until feature freeze), as
there will be side-effects if we move to 1.10.

There's an outstanding merge request that I just commented on here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-django/+bug/1605278

The move to 1.10 in sid has caused quite a bit of breakage. It looks like a
number of upstream projects are not updated yet to handle django 1.10
feature changes. One example is horizon, see Thomas' patches here, and he's
not done fixing things:
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/openstack/horizon.git/log/?h=debian/newton

I understand that the following packages have also required patches thus
far:  django-classy-tags django-nose python-django-babel
python-django-bootstrap-form python-django-formtools
python-django-openstack-auth python-django-sekizai python-django-appconf
python-django-babel python-django-bootstrap-form python-django-compressor
python-django-formtools python-django-openstack-auth
python-django-overextends python-django-pyscss.

Does anyone have any more insight or thoughts on this?
