I don't think I've ever been so eager to speak at a conference, or as excited by the lineup of other speakers.
It's going to be a great time for people at *all* levels of experience, so don't miss out. I hope to see y'all there 🤩

An experiment in mentoring maintainers. 👨🔬

If you’re e.g. a PyLady or a Django Girl (or … ) in the Django community and you want to get into package maintenance, do reach out.

🎉 Feature Friday: Django's Database-Generated Fields!
Need DB-generated values in your Django models? Meet the new GeneratedField!
Define fields with values created by the database, not Django. Powerful for computed columns & more.
DB-generated fields can be used for the following use cases:
• Computed columns
• Default values from DB functions
• Auto-updating timestamps

OK, @CodenameTim had a super idea: We’re going to do a package maintainers open space @djangocon. If you’re a maintainer in the @django ecosystem (or you want to be) and you’ll be there, look out for that. We can share our woes, and joys of course, and plans, and hopes. 🤗 #Django #djangocon #DjangoconUS
