Django 1.0.2 released
Shortly after last week's Django 1.0.1 release, several people noted that the packaging script used to produce the release omitted several directories from the Django source tree; mostly this affected some unit tests, but at least one of the omitted directories affected the use of Django itself (specifically, of django.contrib.gis). So tonight we're issuing Django 1.0.2, which is built around an updated packaging script and should resolve these problems.
This is a recommended upgrade for anyone using or targeting Django 1.0 or Django 1.0.1; to obtain a copy, swing by the downloads page, and don't forget to read the release notes. For the security conscious, a signed file containing the package's checksums is, as always, available.

Would it be possible to maintain SVN release branch to track 1.0.X releases so that we can all save on bandwidth when new maintenance version is released ?

Amit: Why don't you just svn switch to tags/releases/1.0.2?

Oops, I was looking at the wrong place. Yes I could just use svn sw (I was looking for branches not releases!)
Thanks!

presumably the packaging script comment means that only people downloading the tarball, as opposed to SVN, were affected?

Congrats on the Django team!
@Chris Johnson: I think it might be helpful if the djangobook project was ported over to a wiki so that we can help refactor it.
@tom: this page says approximately March 2009 http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2...

That's great news James.
Is there any word on when we can expect an updated Django Book? That was a great resource for me when I was learning the essentials of Django.
