The most common way to implement multilingual content on Python projects leads to accessibility issues and systematic WCAG fails discuss.python.org/t/accessibi

Been thinking about this for a while, unsure where to raise it, unsure what I’m missing. Decided to raise it at the source thanks to good #DjangoConEurope vibes and discussions with @tut_tuuut & the @django accessibility team ⭐

Today I reminded myself that one of the reasons people (well, me at least) reach for #Django is the built-in admin interface.

It's a convenience worth emulating.

Learning a lot about Djangonaut.Space from @ontowhee at #NBPy. #Django

I've been curious about how this program works and I'm now wondering whether #Python/Cpython should borrow some ideas for their core dev mentorship efforts (possible they may have already).

Because I do a fair amount of frontend work but think most frontend frameworks are overkill, I use #HTMX and #alpinejs a lot. And @glyph's #NBPy talk made me think about what a #PyScript package that combines both and provides #python handles to both would look like.

What could I build if I had a drop-in #django package that gave me all the interaction I wanted while writing python code?

Más quisiera yo que hubiesen más ejemplos en #España (que los hay) pero más al estilo #Django desencadenado. Volando a fascistas y demás basura explotadora.

Some might say that spending an hour+ making my logs a bit prettier instead of working on the guts of my app or business is a waste of time.

They wouldn't say that if they knew how often I have to look at my logs 😅😂

Announcing an experimental new process for proposing ideas and features to the Django project 🌈

Exciting news from the #django Steering Council - we're experimenting with a new GitHub issue tracker and Kanban board for tracking new feature ideas.

New Feature Request/Proposal Process with GitHub Repository

Django is experimenting with a new GitHub repository specifically designed to manage feature ideas and their progression. This is a significant shift away from the previous process of posting those to the forum.

Introducing the Django Features Repository

The Django Steering Council has launched a new GitHub repository at https://github.com/django/new-features dedicated to managing feature requests and ideas. This repository works in conjunction with a GitHub project to provide more efficient tracking of feature ideas as they move through various stages of consideration.

Why This Matters for Django Developers

This new approach aims to addresses several challenges the Django community has faced with feature requests:

Community involvement: Clear guidelines on how to participate in feature discussions
Structured workflow: A defined path from idea to implementation
Better resource allocation: Prioritization based on community support and feasibility

The New Feature Process Flow

The process follows a workflow with several key decision points:

New Idea Submission: Community members submit feature ideas as GitHub issues
Community Support Phase: The community reacts with emojis and comments to express support or concerns
Evaluation for Core Inclusion: The Steering Council determines if the feature belongs in Django core or whether it is more appropriate as a 3rd party package
Implementation Planning: Through an expedited DEP (Django Enhancement Proposal) process

How to Participate

Have a Feature Idea?

If you have an idea for improving Django, the process starts by creating an issue in the new repository. Before submitting, review the new feature process documentation to understand what to expect.

Want to Help Shape Django's Future?

There are three key areas where community involvement is needed:

Community Support Assessment: Review open tickets and share your support using emoji reactions
👍 For features you would use
👎 For features that might cause problems
😕 For features you're indifferent about
🎉 For easy wins

Core Evaluation: Help determine whether features should exist in Django core or as third-party packages

Implementation Volunteering: Assist with implementing, reviewing implementations, and maintenance of approved features

Benefits for the Django Community

We believe this new process can help with:

Clearer communication: Understanding where a feature stands in the process
More efficient feature development: Resources directed to features with demonstrated community support
Better separation of concerns: Distinguishing between features that belong in core versus those better suited as third-party packages
Reduced friction: Expedited processes for smaller feature requests

Providing Feedback

If you have thoughts about the new process itself, we'd love to get feedback through the Django Forum.

Conclusion

The experimental new feature repository represents is one of several steps Django is taking in order to try and improve the contributor experience journey. By providing a structured, transparent process for feature requests, Django aims to better serve its community while maintaining the framework's quality and sustainability.

For developers interested in contributing to Django or proposing new features, this new system should provide clearer expectations while making it easier to locate and participate in the discussion around a specific feature.
