There is not a lot of information on the site. I have only a cursory knowledge of Django, but the django-cms features seem to be the same as those of Django. Can anyone enlighten me to the benefits of django-cms?
Drupal's all about the hook system and modular architecture, and to recreate it in Django along with even half of the good stuff in contrib would take a very long time.
More importanly, Django will need to make progress in schema evolution to allow for easy DB upgrades between versions. This is the area where Django lacks most right now.
You mean something like South (http://south.aeracode.org/)? Did you have any problems using it or did you prefer something else?
It would be nice to see something like this incorporated into Django itself, but I guess you can't expect it to bake you a cake, manage your finances and provide you with an easy way to build websites all in one single package. But a man can dream.
Schema-migration utilities are in a phase where there's some competition going on and features and support cross-pollinating; sooner or later there'll be a clear winner and it'll be time to talk about bundling with Django itself, but for now it's best to let the community evolve things, since that'll develop useful things much more quickly than stuffing something prematurely into django.contrib.
