Django Packaged Libraries 1.2, 1.3 Support Shutdown

Support for versions 1.2 and 1.3 of the Django packaged libraries will be removed on July 18, 2016. We recommend that you move to newer versions of Django, such as Django 1.8 LTS or later.

After this date, your app will experience runtime errors if your app.yaml file contains the following library entries:

libraries:
-name: django
 version: 1.2

or

libraries:
-name: django
 version: 1.3

Important: You must also upload the library with your application by including it in your application project directory.

Django provides information about key migration issues when migrating from version 1.2 to version 1.3, and when migrating from version 1.3 to version 1.4 and when migrating from version 1.4 to 1.8 in their release notes.
